[OpenIndiana-discuss] OpenIndiana book

[Robin Axelsson]

If I could choose I would probably use the webgui that comes with 
FreeNAS (freenas.org). I haven't looked into napp-it but I remember the 
confusion I had when I read in the OpenSolaris manual pages and the 
OpenSolaris Bible about the webmin tools and couldn't find it in the OS.

It turned out that it wasn't included in the OpenSolaris, only on 
Solaris/Nevada. So my question was since the Oracle thing and all, if it 
has been reinstated with the OpenIndiana distros.

I tried installing the webmin packages by ripping them off of the Nevada 
install CD. I ended up corrupting the OS in the process making it 
unbootable, so I wouldn't make such an attempt again unless I know it is 
safe to do so.
