10:05 AM I’ve posted yesterday an opposite installation tips. See [HYPERLINK@vireso.blogspot.com]
I think having OpenSolaris as Dom0 gives you a lot of advantages. You may use zfs zvols as storage devices for your DomUs. This really makes backup, both full and incremental, easy and fast. Just use zfs snapshot, then zfs send commands. It works incredibly fast.

I compiled and built this ready to use nx+freenx server tarball for solaris10 x86. This is both freenx 0.7.0 and the nomachine NX libraries version 2.1.0-2.
Tested on a fresh solaris 10 x86 u4 8/07

Here’s gnome and CDE on sol10×86, for the non-believers.

Just download nx_freenx_sol10×86.tar.gz

place it in your server at /, and uncompress.

# cd /

# gunzip nx_freenx_sol10×86.tar.gz

# tar xvf nx_freenx_sol10×86.tar

Then run the nxinstall script, which will check for the required packages. all of them from blastwave.org. VERY IMPORTANT: if these are missing, install them!!!! nx+freenx won’t work without ggetopt, expect, gmd5sum, gfind, ggetopt,netcat from blastwave at /opt/csw/bin!!!

# nxinstall

a log of a succesful nxinstall should look like this

After this, you’ll be ready to use any nx client on another computer to connect to your Solaris 10 x86 freenx server!

ENJOY!
