JES on a non-networked solaris box?
the objective: install JES on a standalone non-networked Solaris box. this is a test server.The question: Is there any JES component that will refuse to be installed on this server if the hosts file was edited properly?thanks.

By "host file edited properly" you mean that the hostname is associated with the loopback (127.0.0.1) address? That should make most things that assume there's a network happy.
I'm pretty sure Messaging Server will be cranky if there's not a DNS server, and other components might as well, so you'll want to set up one. I don't know of a cookbook for setting up standalone DNS, but it's certainly possible.

Directory Server also expects to be able to resolve fully qualified domain names...A simple workaround (that I use daily on my laptop) is to add a fully qualifed name to the local host in /etc/hosts.127.0.0.1 localhost mypc mypc.example.comRegards,Ludovic.
