To wipe out all disks

Sometimes you need to delete all info in your disks, perhaps because it contains private data. You can effectively do this
by erasing the first 1024 blocks on the disk. After doing this the disk will lose its label and the partition schema. You can
run the next script to obtain the list of commands that will do it on your server:
#!/bin/ksh
format < /dev/null| egrep “cyl” | while read l;do
D=`echo $l | awk ‘{ print “dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/dsk/”$2″s2 count=1024” }’`
echo $D
done

NX and Freenx tarball for Solaris 10 SPARC

After doing the slackware build, i felt i could do the solaris 10 build… it required some tweaking on the freenx scripts to
make it all work. This is both freenx 0.7.0 and the nomachine NX libraries version 2.1.0-2.
nx-sol10-sparc.tar.gz
place it in your server at /, and uncompress.
# cd /
# gunzip nx-sol10-sparc.tar.gz
# tar xvf nx-sol10-sparc.tar
Then run the nxinstall script, which will check for the required packages. all of them from blastwave.org.
VERY
IMPORTANT: if these are missing, install them!!!! nx+freenx won’t work
without ggetopt, expect, gmd5sum, gfind, ggetopt,netcat from blastwave
at /opt/csw/bin!!!
# nxinstall
this
After this, you’ll be ready to use any nx client on another computer to connect to your Solaris 10 SPARC
freenx server!
Then install the client on your PC from:
http://www.nomachine.com/download-package.php?Prod_Id=65
And connect to your solaris server 🙂
ENJOY
NX + freenx Slackware 12 package
After having a hard time to make it all work, i built a package to install both freenx 0.7.0 and the nomachine NX libraries
version 2.1.0-2.
freenx_0.7.0_nx_2.1.0-2.tgz
It is a SLACKWARE 12 package. Once you downlad it do a:

# nxsetup –install
And connect to your linux server using the client downloaded from:
