Thanks to: Paul Keller Joel Lee Chris Keladis Ric Anderson Jeff Woolsey zoo11@mail.hst.co.kr Lars Hecking petri kallberg Riddoch, John Albert White sysadmin@astro.su.se Rich Kulawiec I had tried "truss" (and the man pages as well) and depending on which flag is used, different information is displayed. I found out that there are several 'files' being called into play: /usr/lib/libdl.so.1 /usr/lib/locale/en_US/en_US.so.1 /dev/zero (Note: the /dev/zero is linked to ../devices/pseudo/mm@0:zero which appear to be null files) and in /usr/include/sys/utsname.h, the #include <sys/feature_tests.h> struct is used (and I am not a programmer by any means of my imagination) so I'm not sure what this does. Now I'm starting to get into the 'nitty-gritty' of the kernel, of which I am completely ignorant of.....and here comes the investigate/learn process. Why am I being so "anal" about this???? Because we reported a problem we are having when we changed from 2.6 to Solaris 8 to Sun and their response was that it was not a problem we were having but more of a "request for enhancement". Things were changed/removed from the kernel. We have some people here who were able to 'hack' the genunix file and 'put back' what was missing so now I'm trying to play detective and determine whether or not we truly have a problem and possible bug with Solaris 8 or if it is as Sun says and it's just an enhancement request. Again, I appreciate the quick responses - this is a GREAT list :o) Deborah _______________________________________________ sunmanagers mailing list sunmanagers@sunmanagers.org http://www.sunmanagers.org/mailman/listinfo/sunmanagersReceived on Thu Jan 17 11:50:19 2002
