| Subject: Solaris 10 service manifest |

| I've found dnsmasq much easier to set up on my home server running Solaris |
| 10 than the stock dhcp/dns server, which is probably overkill anyway for my |
| simple home network needs. Since Solaris now uses SMF (Service Management |
| Facility) to manage services I thought I'd create a simple service manifest |
| for the dnsmasq service. The manifest currently assumes that dnsmasq has |
| been installed in '/usr/local/sbin/dnsmasq' and the configuration file in |
| '/usr/local/etc/dnsmasq.conf', so you may have to adjust these paths for |
| your local installation. Here are the steps I followed to install and enable |
| the dnsmasq service: |
| # svccfg import dnsmasq.xml |
| # svcadm enable dnsmasq |
| |
| To confirm that the service is enabled and online: |
| |
| # svcs -l dnsmasq |
| |
| I've just started learning about SMF so if anyone has any |
| corrections/feedback they are more than welcome. |
| |
| Thanks, |
| David |
