init: smb(5) repository server not running

error message

Hello guys,

I'm new to Sun OS and would very much appreciate if someone could identify what is the issue here and its possible solution

Background: I was booting up SunOS 10 on my vmware to carry out some tests and suddenly the electicity tripped and my server crashed (along with the just booting SunOS in vmware)

After i restored the electricity, i was trying to boot up the SUN OS again, but it just dosent start the GUI! It asks me for the root password and then just sits about! When i try to start the GUI with a init 6 it displays the error message

Any Help Appreciated

Guys

Sorry for being a DODO!

I've managed to read all the help messages, the helpful Sun OS presented and understood that i could run the command below, which guides me to run further commands and i've managed to resolve the issue! I can see my GUI now! I'm saved!

/lib/svc/bin/restore/repository

Thanks for taking the time to read this.
