Remarks
Solaris 10 provides Solaris Service Manager (SMF) to enhance the UNIX startup script
(so called RC script) and system daemons during boot up. Due to this new feature, there
is some unexpected and incompatible behavior compared to Solaris 9 or older versions.
1
Refer to SMF documentation as follows and smf(5) manual page.
Solaris 10 System Administrator Collection
>> System Administration Guide: Basic Administration
http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/817-1985/
/usr/bin/ln has been changed in Solaris 10.
z Solaris 9 or older versions.
/usr/bin/ln will overwrite file if target file already exists.
z Solaris 10.
/usr/bin/ln will fail if target file already exists.

The same behavior occurs with Solaris 9 or older versions if the -f option is used with
the ln command.
If the DHCP sever has multiple network interfaces, it may not be able to deliver an IP
address to a DHCP client because of DHCP server settings.
3
pntadm(1M) -s option needs to be specified with "uname -n" or the IP address of the
primary network interface. If a non-primary IP address is specified with pntadm -s,
DHCP server will not be able to deliver an IP address to the DHCP client.
