[OmniOS-discuss] A small gotcha with switching the ssh & openssh packages in OmniOS

[Chris Siebenmann]

 It's great that Sun SSH can now be more or less transparently swapped
for OpenSSH. As part of that both of them provide the SMF service
svc:/network/ssh:default. However, there is a difference in the SMF
properties that each of them uses for boot time ordering: Sun SSH uses
fs-local/*, and OpenSSH uses localfs/*. This means that if you have
customized eg fs-local/entities for Sun SSH (as we have, so that SSH
starts very early), you will probably get odd results if you swap over
to OpenSSH.

 It would be nice if this difference didn't exist and the OpenSSH
package also used fs-local for this SMF dependency. However it may
be too late to change it now.

	       right SMF terminology
