Day one of training

Day one of training, and I think it went pretty well. I've got 5 students, and most of them have some Unix experience.

The training machines are Solaris, which is causing some problems, all related to my ignorance of Solaris. Bunch of stuff in /opt/sfw/ that I expect to be in my path already.

Once more, I praise Drury. Drury is the best hotel I have ever stayed at for keeping the business traveller in mind. Free broadband Internet in every room. Free breakfast. Free drinks from 5:30 to 7 every evening. I suppose it might be a little more expensive, but it is worth it.

OK, Palm battery is dying, and I need to go find food.

The /opt/sfw directory is for Sun Freeware.

Here's the ultimate pathlist I use for Solaris systems.

IARCH=`uname -i`
$HOME/bin
/usr/sbin
/sbin
/usr/platform/$IARCH/sbin
/opt/sfw/bin
/usr/local/bin
/usr/perl5/bin
/bin
/usr/bin
/usr/ccs/bin
/usr/java/bin
