Thanks for the answers to my question about installing openldap-server.
As I would prefer to limit the number of repositories from which I'm
taking packages, I'm considering switching to LTS so I can take packages
from OmniTI.
I'm sure I saw somewhere how to switch from one release to another but
can't find the instructions now. It seems to me that the process would be
something like:
clone the current BE to something like omnios-LTS.
use pkg -R /rpool/omnios-LTS er_something to switch the release of
omnios-LTS.
use pkg -R /rpool/omnios-LTS update
reboot into BE omnios-LTS
but that won't fix the zones. I wonder if a more simple answer is to have
one zone just for openldap, on LTS, and the rest of the system on Stable,
if that's possible.
Obviously I could just reinstall but that's painful.
Any other ideas? Thanks, Michael.
