Trusted Solaris 7 Installation and Configuration on the Sun Enterprise 10000

Install the AnswerBook2 Server

You will need the server to be able to view books in the SSP 3.1.1 AnswerBook2TM collection.

If you have not installed the AnswerBook2 server, or are not sure if you have, at a minimum, version 3.0, you can check the version of the AnswerBook2 server as described in the following procedure.

To Check the AnswerBook2 Server Version

  1. On a Trusted Solaris SSP, assume the root role.

  2. Type: 


    ssp# pkginfo -l SUNWab2r

    If your version of the AnswerBook2 server is earlier than version 3.0, you must re-install it.

    Note -

    It is suggested that you install the AnswerBook2 server on a system other than the SSP.

If you have installed the AnswerBook2 server on another system, you can install the SSP 3.1.1 AnswerBook2 package on the SSP and add the SSP 3.1.1 AnswerBook2 to the AnswerBook2 index by using the ab2admin(1M) command.

If you do not have the AnswerBook2 server installed on any system, or if you have a version earlier than 3.0, you can install the AnswerBook2 server from the Solaris Documentation CD or from the Web.
