[osol-discuss] Project proposal: Enhanced SMF Profiles

2006-05-11 Thread David Bustos
I propose a project to enhance SMF profiles. The goals are to allow profiles to specify arbitrary service properties (today's profiles may only specify whether services should be enabled), to allow administrators to specify a customization profile during JumpStart, and to provide a generic profile
