Hi,

I'm trying to configure the kernel on a Sparc 10
running Solaris 2.3.

On SunOS the changes I made were to add the
following lines to NEW_KERNEL:

options "SEMMNS=128"
options "SEMMNI=32"
options "SHMSIZE=2500"
options "SEMMNU=64"

How can I accomplish the same thing with this
God-dang, new fangled, dy-nam-mik Kernel ?

Any help would be most appreciated (especially since
SUN want $150/hour for support!).

Edit /etc/system and add the parameters.

For the precise name of the variables, look in the answerbook.

(Search for semmns and you'll find what you'relooking for).

Ahh.. Slight problem. We dont have answer book installed
and we dont have the Solaris CD.

Thanks for the help though!

These parameters are also listed at:

You really need the sysadm answerbook for serious work.
Don't expect to find stuff like kernel parameters w/o
the docs.

Mr Heppenstall, you are a moron!

This is how you do it...

Add the lines:

set semsys:seminfo_semmns=512
set semsys:seminfo_semmnu=256

to /etc/system and reboot.

You don't need to change anything for the other parameters.

Maybe you should stick to an easier to use OS like VMS :-).

When I try to ftp to umbc8.umbc.edu and login as "register" or "anonymous",
it tells me that I am an invalid user.

How can I login and get that file???

Thank you for your help,
Richard

You need a Web browser like Mosaic and open the specified URL.
