4. End-of-Software Support Statements
A. Table of Integrated Bug Fixes in the Solaris 10 Operating System
This section describes issues that involve the Service Management Facility of Solaris 10 OS.
When a host has no local printers configured, two print services, ipp-listener and rfc1179, are set to offline by default. These services are automatically moved to online after local printers are configured on the host. The default offline settings of these services do not indicate an error. Therefore, no user intervention is required.
Workaround: None.
On systems that do not use Network Information Service (NIS) or NIS+ name service, the NFS and autofs services are disabled. The failure is due to these services' dependency on the keyserv daemon. The keyserv daemon relies on the RPC domain name, which is not set on systems that do not use NIS or NIS+. Consequently, the failure of the keyserv daemon causes the NFS and autofs services to become disabled.
Workaround: To enable the services, perform the following steps:
Become superuser.
Issue the following commands:
# svcadm disable network/rpc/keyserv # svcadm disable -t network/nfs/client:default # svcadm enable network/nfs/client:default # svcadm disable -t network/nfs/server:default # svcadm enable network/nfs/server:default # svcadm disable -t network/rpc/gss:ticotsord # svcadm enable network/rpc/gss:ticotsord
During system startups, sometimes the login services such as console or ssh logins start before remote file systems and naming services become available. Consequently, the user name might not be recognized or the user's home directory might not be available.
Workaround: If the error occurs, wait for a few seconds and then log in again. Alternatively, log in from a local account to view the system state.
