[rescue] Solaris 2.6 today

[Steve Hatle]

All,

I brought home a nice 8-way Sparcserver 1000e from VMFMW a couple of 
weeks ago.

So far all the hardware checks out, and I'm ready to do my full-on 
Solaris install and all the updates and add-ons I'd like.

As far as that goes, what's the best source to find packages built for 
Solaris 2.6 or maybe 7 these days? It's been a long time since I've been 
down this road, and I see sunfreeware is no longer free, etc. Blastwave 
doesn't appear to be live. I found an archive of stuff at ibiblio.org.

Are there good sources for this stuff these days?

I also remember there being sets of scripts like YASSP for hardening, etc.

I know I could go and roll all these things by hand (and that might be 
good for me), but I'm really just looking to modernize and add some 
things that will make the box useful on my home network, not set up a 
'net-facing bastion host.

Any advice or pointers appreciated,

Steve
