Sun Solaris, OpenSolaris With a (relatively) big advertising campaign SUN promoted Solaris 10 (also known as SunOS 5.10). Referring to SUN, with the "revolutionary" JAVADesktop 2 and a lot of new features and improvements, Solaris 10 should be the best OS today. Solaris is free for SPARC owners and for private use or evaluation purpose it's also freely available on the x86. While Solaris actually is kind of a legend, I thought "Hu, this could be an interesting alternative on my PC". Thought, went on and downloaded the ISOs. Read on to see how an average user (me) have experienced Solaris.

more questions for the reviewer@Jeremy

If I were the "reviewer" setting up two zones, there would be root0, root1 and root2. root0 could see everything on the system, ie. ls, ps, etc. root1 would only see zone1 info and root2 would only see zone2 info. And to keep zone2/root2 from using up too many system resources running "rogue", root0 could also set system/user limits on the various zones it created.

There is only a cli for administrating zones, but the documentation is very good, IMO. Robert E's link is a good start.
