[indiana-discuss] Distro query

[Karen Tung]

Hi Vivek,

You can not just use the configuration file right out of the gate.  You 
will have to modify it.
Please see the README file in the workspace or read it online at
http://cvs.opensolaris.org/source/xref/caiman/distro_constructor/README.
The instruction on how to modify the file and what each of the variables 
mean are documented there.

Unless you run your own IPS server, the one you want to point your conf 
file to is
http://pkg.opensolaris.org
