    7: I've found dnsmasq much easier to set up on my home server running Solaris
    8: 10 than the stock dhcp/dns server, which is probably overkill anyway for my
    9: simple home network needs. Since Solaris now uses SMF (Service Management
   10: Facility) to manage services I thought I'd create a simple service manifest
   11: for the dnsmasq service. The manifest currently assumes that dnsmasq has
   12: been installed in '/usr/local/sbin/dnsmasq' and the configuration file in
   13: '/usr/local/etc/dnsmasq.conf', so you may have to adjust these paths for
   14: your local installation. Here are the steps I followed to install and enable
   15: the dnsmasq service:
   16:   # svccfg import dnsmasq.xml
   17:   # svcadm enable dnsmasq
   18: 
   19: To confirm that the service is enabled and online:
   20: 
   21:   # svcs -l dnsmasq
   22: 
   23: I've just started learning about SMF so if anyone has any
   24: corrections/feedback they are more than welcome.
