Thanks, but, Unfortunately it does not work on my Ultra 45 (with Solaris 10 installed)

Would this work on Sun 9? I do have it installed in a Sun 10.. but I want it to work in other old servers.

Thanks for telling your readers about sneep; I’m glad that it has been useful to you.

In your tutorial here, you have an optional step in which you show how to create a symbolic link to sneep, and that will work just fine.

I thought that I would mention that sneep includes a utility which can do this for you, and the link is registered as part of sneep so that it is removed if the package is removed.

$ /opt/SUNWsneep/bin/add_sneep_to_bin [directory]

By default, a link to sneep is placed in /usr/sbin unless a directory name is given.
