Spending time in OpenSolaris

I'm still really excited to spend time with ZFS and OpenSolaris but my install was old... looks like upgrading is easier these days.

Having no idea what to try I found this online
sudo pkg set-publisher -O http://pkg.opensolaris.org/dev opensolaris.org

eseale@opensolaris:~$ sudo pfexec pkg image-update
WARNING: pkg(5) appears to be out of date, and should be updated before
running image-update.

Please update pkg(5) using 'pfexec pkg install SUNWipkg' and then retry
the image-update.

eseale@opensolaris:~$ sudo pkg install SUNWipkg

OpenSolaris is a big jump

and i'm lost

eric@opensolarisESXi:~$ pfexec pkg install SUNWiscsi
Creating Plan |
pkg: Could not retrieve manifest 'SUNWiscsi@0.5.11%2C5.11-0.111%3A20090508T161040Z' from 'http://pkg.opensolaris.org/release' URLError, reason: (8, 'node name or service name not known')

My super lazy ipf.conf from OpenSolaris

I was looking at this for a project at work.

root@opensolaris:/etc/ipf# cat ipf.conf
block in log all
#pass in quick proto 2 from any to any
#pass in quick proto 1 from any to any
pass in quick proto 17 from any to any
pass in quick from any to any port 0 >< 1025
keep state pass out all keep state



I really need to spend more time with OpenSolaris.

It looks fantastic!
