[indiana-discuss] Has sys-unconfig been changed in OpenSolaris 2008.05?

[Ross Becker]

Folks,
    I recently set up an Opensolaris 2008.05 box, and determined that NWAM wouldn't work for my environment.  I needed to do DHCP and transmit my hostname to the DHCP server so it would be registered into DNS.

  All the documentation I found suggested that if I did a sys-unconfig, it would prompt me for networking configuration.   I ran a sys-unconfig, and when the box rebooted, I was prompted about locale, hostname, timezone, and root password.  The system didn't ask me ANY questions about networking, NIS, or anything like that.

Is that now expected behaviour for sys-unconfig?  

If so, I was unable to find solid documentation of how to do network configuration manually, so unless I missed it the documentation needs to be addressed, or if it's not expected behaviour, I may need to file a bug report.
