Last week, on my country's Liberation Day, Sun released OpenSolaris 2008.05, the much awaited first official fruit of Project Indiana. It delivers many of OpenSolaris' major features, such as DTrace, ZFS, containers, and more, in a Linux distribution-like package. The goal is to allow more people to experience Solaris. A few reviews have since hit the web.

Actually it does work, but it depends on DHCP which I do not use. So, OpenSolaris tries to come up with a configuration that will work using what it finds in the initial network probe. It found my router just fine and assigned an appropriate IP address for my network, it is just that the DNS servers were for hr.cox.net, not east.cox.net.
My soultion was to modify the resolv.conf and nsswitch.conf so I could get a working configuration, which I know does work with Solaris/Solaris Express and now OpenSolaris.
