How can I upgrade an old sparc5 running Solaris 6, and NIS+ master server, to a Ultra box running Solaris 8, and also a NIS+ master server?<br />
<br />
The Ultra box will replace the sparc one. The machine name, IP and domain stay the same.<br />
<br />
thanks

Unix is a multitasking, multi-user computer operating system originally developed in 1969 at Bell Labs. Today, it is a modern OS with many commercial flavors and licensees, including FreeBSD, Hewlett-Packard’s UX, IBM AIX and Apple Mac OS-X. Apart from its command-line interface, most UNIX variations support the standardized X Window System for GUIs, with the exception of the Mac OS, which uses a proprietary system.
