Software Compatibility

1998. In particular, Solaris 2.6 was tested with these patches installed:
Software Compatibility
Network Registrar 3.0(1)T is compatible with the following:
• DHCP clients—All RFC 1954, 2132, and 2133 compliant DHCP and BOOTP clients
• DNS servers—Any DNS server compliant with RFC 2136 Dynamic DNS Updates and RFC
1995 and 1996 (IXFR and NOTIFY)
• LDAP servers—Any LDAP v2 or v3 server, including servers from Netscape, Sun
Microsystems, and Lucent Technologies
There is a known problem on Solaris that may cause the DHCP server to hang during initialization.
The problem is described by Sun RFE 4071167. You can encounter the deadlock in the Solaris name
resolver client by installing a linked set of patches from Sun, including 103663-08, and disabling
host name caching in nscd (to improve name resolver client performance), which is recommended
by Sun in RFE 1243174.
To avoid this problem, do one of the following:
• Do not install the linked patch set.
• Do not disable “nscd” host name caching.
• Install patch 103663-11 (Solaris 2.5.1) or 105755-01 (Solaris 2.6).
