1) named.localhost{,.rev} were never reverted to the bind 8.1
versions. this causes named to reject the zones
2) /usr/lib/cpp (/lib is a symlink to /usr/lib) is a symlink loop:
speaker-for-the-dead.mit.edu# ls -l /usr/lib/cpp
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 16 Apr 23 1998 /usr/lib/cpp -> /usr/ccs/lib/cpp
speaker-for-the-dead.mit.edu# ls -l /usr/ccs/lib/cpp
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 13 May 22 17:59 /usr/ccs/lib/cpp -> ../../lib/cpp
This caused the synctree part of mkserv to break (but not cause mkserv
to fail)
3) /etc/mail/sendmail.cf was the solaris version, not the athena
version. This caused sendmail to flame at me and not work.
After fixing this problem, when my machine boots, it is running a
sendmail daemon. Perhaps the following files should go away:
-rwxr--r-- 5 root sys 868 Sep 1 1998 /etc/rc0.d/K36sendmail
-rwxr--r-- 5 root sys 868 Sep 1 1998 /etc/rc1.d/K36sendmail
-rwxr--r-- 5 root sys 868 Sep 1 1998 /etc/rc2.d/S88sendmail
-rwxr--r-- 5 root sys 868 Sep 1 1998 /etc/rcS.d/K36sendmail
3a) I got the following message during the update:
SUNWsndmr
Copyright 1998 Sun Microsystems, Inc. All rights reserved.
cp: cannot create /root/etc/mail/aliases: No such file or directory
there was no /etc/mail/aliases, and I'm pretty sure that
/etc/mail/aliases.old was not the /etc/mail/aliases from before thre
update (there is a small chance I'm confused about this tho.)
4) lpsched was running:
the following soud probably go away:
-rwxr--r-- 5 root sys 460 Sep 1 1998 /etc/rc0.d/K39lp
-rwxr--r-- 5 root sys 460 Sep 1 1998 /etc/rc1.d/K39lp
-rwxr--r-- 5 root sys 460 Sep 1 1998 /etc/rc2.d/S80lp
-rwxr--r-- 5 root sys 460 Sep 1 1998 /etc/rcS.d/K39lp
5) snmpd and related bogosities were running. I think we wat to nuke
the following:
-rwxr--r-- 6 root sys 861 Sep 1 1998 /etc/rc0.d/K07dmi
-rwxr--r-- 6 root sys 404 Sep 1 1998 /etc/rc0.d/K07snmpdx
-rwxr--r-- 6 root sys 861 Sep 1 1998 /etc/rc1.d/K07dmi
-rwxr--r-- 6 root sys 404 Sep 1 1998 /etc/rc1.d/K07snmpdx
-rwxr--r-- 6 root sys 861 Sep 1 1998 /etc/rc2.d/K07dmi
-rwxr--r-- 6 root sys 404 Sep 1 1998 /etc/rc2.d/K07snmpdx
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root other 21 May 7 1998 /etc/rc2.d/K76snmpdx -> ../init.d/init.snmpdx
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root other 18 May 7 1998 /etc/rc2.d/K77dmi -> ../init.d/init.dmi
-rwxr--r-- 6 root sys 404 Sep 1 1998 /etc/rc3.d/S76snmpdx
-rwxr--r-- 6 root sys 861 Sep 1 1998 /etc/rc3.d/S77dmi
-rwxr--r-- 6 root sys 861 Sep 1 1998 /etc/rcS.d/K07dmi
-rwxr--r-- 6 root sys 404 Sep 1 1998 /etc/rcS.d/K07snmpdx
6) powerd was runnign. I think we don't want it, but I'm not sure:
-rwxr--r-- 5 root sys 1959 Sep 1 1998 /etc/rc0.d/K37power
-rwxr--r-- 5 root sys 1959 Sep 1 1998 /etc/rc1.d/K37power
-rwxr--r-- 5 root sys 1959 Sep 1 1998 /etc/rc2.d/S85power
-rwxr--r-- 5 root sys 1959 Sep 1 1998 /etc/rcS.d/K37power
7) nscd was running. i have no idea how this will interact with our
tendency to change the the passwd and group files out from under it.
8) the solaris supplied man pages don't include pre-formatted pages.
do we care?
9) I'm not sure what causes the zephyr error (attach?), and I don;t
think it matters, but I figured it was worth mentioning.
