In open solaris for logging in as root user the steps are :

1. login as a Primary administrator(user created during the installation)

2.Switch to root user

# su – root

3. Open the /etc/user_attr file and remove the entry type=role for the root account

4. After this try for root login and it will be successful


Login as root in ubuntu linux

By default the root user can not login in ubuntu linux, here I’m telling the steps to activate root login

1. Give password for root by loging as user
#sudo passwd root

2. Edit the gdm.conf configuration file
#sudo vi /etc/gdm/gdm.conf
Change “AllowrootLogin=false” into      “AllowrootLogin=true”

Can any one configure iscsi in solaris 10 ?

Any idea about iscsi?

Its just a storage for clutsers , load balancing , Veritas , Datatbase etc…

So no need of any external storage media. Got it !

Yah ! Just like NAS

Wait for the solution ………
