Dead Cat

I've seen a lot of requests lately on the Big Brother mailing list for a Solaris 10 SMF manifest for Big Brother. I uploaded mine to the Big Brother script repository:

It is called bigbrother.xml and is available for download here:

I decided to skip the 'method' file and just use the start script provided with Big Brother because if you install Big Brother in a Solaris zone, and you have /usr set read-only, then you would have to tweak it out. By not using a 'method' file, as long as the zone can read the file system that Big Brother is installed on (and if it can't, you have bigger problems...) then the service will work.
