Man Pages

Man pages are in a different format, have a different naming scheme, and can be viewed using AnswerBook2^TM technology. Changes in product functionality have caused corresponding changes in the man pages.

• Man pages are in SGML (Standardized General Markup Language). The online man command handles SGML; printed output is in troff.

• Most Trusted Solaris man pages are integrated into the SUNWman package; therefore, the tsol extension is not used. To view man pages in the Trusted Solaris environment, use the same syntax as in the Solaris 7 environment:

  man setfsattr man -s2 chmod man ls

• Answerbook technology is now browser-based. The Trusted Solaris 2.5.1 answerbook command (/usr/openwin/bin/answerbook) does not support this functionality. To view Sun's Solaris 7 and Trusted Solaris 7 documentation, use the command /usr/dt/bin/answerbook2, or choose the AnswerBook2 option from the Help menu on the Front Panel.

• The following man pages do not have Trusted Solaris specific modifications due to changes in installation:

  • install_scripts(1M)

  • add_install_client(1M)

  • rm_install_client(1M)

  • setup_install_server(1M)

• The following man pages have been moved or added due to changes in functionality:

  • dtappsession(1) -- Added to CDE man pages

  • mldstat(3) and mldlstat(3) -- Moved from system calls to library routines.

  • door_create(3x) and door_tcred(3x) -- Added Trusted Solaris security.

  • pam_tp_auth(5) and pam_tsol(5) -- Added Trusted Solaris security.

  • kbd(1) -- Added Trusted Solaris security. See "System Start and Shutdown".

• The following man pages have been removed due to changes in implementation:

  • config_data(4TSOL)

  • msgrcvl(2TSOL)

  • msgsndl(2TSOL)

  • semopl(2TSOL)
