Summary: SMC (Solaris Management Console)

[spacegoose at gmail.com]

>On a fresh install of Sparc Solaris 9 (on an e420r) - the SMC app works.

I posted this question on a Sun forum:

and seem to have found a fix - e.g. SMC now works with the latest
9_Recommended.
A new self-signed key had to be generated.
