[SEMI-SUMMARY] disable kerberos after install/before boot

All,

First time I asked a question and didn't get a single answer :o(!! This
summary is a workaround that is good, but doesn't fully answer the original
question below.

In order to stop a newly upgraded (2.6 --> 9) system from asking about
Kerberos on bootup, mount the upgraded root filesystem on /a (or in the case
of Live Upgrade, as /.alt.<BE-Name>).  Then go to /a/etc/rc2.d and comment
out the section at the bottom of S30sysid.net (make a copy first) that runs
the kerberos setup:

##      if [ -x /usr/sbin/sysidkrb5 ]
##      then
##              /usr/sbin/sysidkrb5
##      fi

This will skip asking about it.  Once the system is up, you can run
/usr/sbin/sysidkrb5 manually to set the policy.  After that, you can put
your original S30sysid.net back.

Still don't know what files it touches.... though I suppose I could've
truss'd the process when I ran it manually.  Maybe next upgrade.  Will send
a follow-up when I find it.

Jeff

Subject: disable kerberos after install/before boot


What file or files are touched by the jumpstart sysidcfg line
"security_policy=NONE"?  I've just done a "Live Upgrade" to Solaris 9, not
using jumpstart, on a machine that I don't have easy console access to.  As
it's booting, it's going to prompt on the console whether I want Kerberos
enabled.  I don't (at least for now), so is there a way I can tell it not to
ask this question?  I can mount the new root partition in order to update
whatever file necessary.

Thanks,

Jeff
