Hi Kathy:
Is the intent to keep this command line focused? In several cases there
are GUIs you can work with for:
* Managing services
* Managing processes
* Shutting down the system
* Verifying device driver support
Other notes:
How to Stop a Program:
In this case, look for the bash process for pts/2 which has a process
ID of 689.
For me it's pts/3 and the process id will always differ. Also, the ps
command by itself is pretty useless. I generally use "ps -ef | grep
'some string'"
I would also echo the sentiments of others to use pfexec instead of
becoming superuser. It's much safer.
Note that the Server type should be IMAP Mail Server
Why are you assuming this is the case? You're probably better off just
listing resources on how to configure Thunderbird to connect to popular
mail servers, such as Yahoo!, gmail, etc.
In addition to
the system user account,
you should create a user account and ZFS file system for your personal
files that can be managed
by delegating ZFS administration permissions, such as creating a file
system snapshot.
Interesting. Why do we recommend creating a 2nd user account? I'm new to
OpenSolaris, but this is the first I've heard of this.

Consider pointing them to Tim's blog on this subject instead:
http://blogs.sun.com/timf/entry/zfs_automatic_for_the_people
mount -F smbfs //solarsystem/tmp /mnt
Before you can mount a SMB client you need to first enable the service
via the GUI or the command line (svcadm enable network/smb/client)
Shut down the system.
Shouldn't the first suggestion be the System > Shutdown menu? And from
the command line, shouldn't we recommend "shutdown" over "init 5"?
Regards,
Brian

I have been leading a group of writers working on a
companion to the "Getting Started" Guide. The idea
is to document some useful procedures to help configure
an OpenSolaris laptop after the OS is installed.
Please take a look at a review draft of the
"OpenSolaris 2008.05 System Administration Guide"
(OSadminguide.pdf) at:
http://www.opensolaris.org/os/project/indiana/files/
We have been working on this book for a couple of weeks,
so we haven't had time to complete all sections or polish
the content yet, but the current content should give you an idea of
what we have decided to cover. In particular, the chapter about
"Useful Commands" has not been worked on yet. Also, the links to
docs.sun.com aren't working.
I need to deliver this book for the Back To School Kit before August 8th,
so please send me comments by COB on Wednesday 8/6. We will be
developing this book further after the 8th for the 2008.11 release,
so there will be more time for comments later. For now:
1) send any corrections to me or to the alias if discussion is needed
2) tell me about any procedures that we should add
3) please give me suggestions for a better book title
Many thanks for your time and comments.
-Kathy
