Hi All,

I have a need to host an S11 IPS repo on a Solaris 10 machine. Is this
possible? Would anyone be willing to point/push/pull/trip me in the
right direction for doing this?

Thanks!

-Brian

I think this site may help. I have not looked at it in a long time, but
you could give it a try:

If you want HTTP support, no, not currently.

The version the other person linked two is a few years out of date and
is defunct.

The best option is to simply export an NFS share, which clients can then
access using file:///path/to/reposhare/

It will be significantly faster too.
