Where to find a package for installation?

Hello everyone,

I have a question about SunSO 10 package. Are they come with the CD/DVD installation? And how you guy identify the package name?

Thanks,

Marin

If you order a CD set/DVD then you get all Solaris packages.

Or you can download S10.

The package name mostly depends on the goals they have, eg for an NFS environment

# pkginfo |grep nfs

systemSUNWnfsckrNetwork File System (NFS) client kernel support (Root)

systemSUNWnfscrNetwork File System (NFS) client support (Root)

systemSUNWnfscuNetwork File System (NFS) client support (Usr)

systemSUNWnfsskrNetwork File System (NFS) server kernel support (Root)

systemSUNWnfssrNetwork File System (NFS) server support (Root)

systemSUNWnfssuNetwork File System (NFS) server support (Usr)

To get the package name of a particular file you can always use /var/sadm/install/contents, for example:

grep "/bin/ls" /var/sadm/install/contents

should display a line which contains a lot of information, among which you will see which package it came with..
