Hi Tim, I always create users for automated functions and never use root unless its forced. As well I usually create a group which is used to assign any required rights for the role or function. The cron job should be assigned to the running user which you can always edit as a primary admin. e.g. crontab -e user-role Least access principle has saved by bacon more times than I wish to count.

For some reason I was able to ping other hosts on the network but had to reboot after installing a package. When the host (an OI 151 box) came back up it wasn't able to ping anything except itself. The links were setup in an active/passive link aggregate called aggr0. I decided to attempt to recreate the link pool with the dladm remove-aggr command. But when I typed dladm remove-aggr -d e1000g1 1 I see the message : dladm: remove operation failed: object not found. Which is weird because if I do a dladm show-aggr I see the aggregate in question. I was able to unplumb the aggregate link with ifconfig aggr0 unplumb. But I cannot plumb or unplumb the individual physical links at this point. If I unplumb them I get ifconfig unplumb e1000g0 ifconfig: cannot unplumb e1000g0: Interface does not exist When I plumb it I see: ifconfig e1000g0 plumb ifconfig: cannot plumb e1000g0: Interface already in use This is a very confusing situation! Does anyone have any solution for this? I need to be able to delete the link aggregation, plumb the individual interfaces and verify they are working before recreating the aggregate. I have good instructions for creating an aggregate and it was working well at one recent point. But I decided to try another tutorial that lead me down this path, and now I know which one to avoid! thanks for any advice you may have -- GPG me!! gpg --keyserver pool.sks-keyservers.net --recv-keys F186197B _______________________________________________ OpenIndiana-discuss mailing list OpenIndiana-discuss@openindiana.org http://openindiana.org/mailman/listinfo/openindiana-discuss _______________________________________________ OpenIndiana-discuss mailing list OpenIndiana-discuss@openindiana.org http://openindiana.org/mailman/listinfo/openindiana-discuss
