[OmniOS-discuss] OmniOS as home serwer (NAT, private projects)

[Olaf Marzocchi]

It's clearly an easy way to manage the server and to get info about its 
status, just remember to take a snapshot before installing it, it 
doesn't use packages and it does not install its stuff in /opt, so 
removing it it's not trivial.
