7I've found dnsmasq much easier to set up on my home server running Solaris
810 than the stock dhcp/dns server, which is probably overkill anyway for my
9simple home network needs. Since Solaris now uses SMF (Service Management
10Facility) to manage services I thought I'd create a simple service manifest
11for the dnsmasq service. The manifest currently assumes that dnsmasq has
12been installed in '/usr/local/sbin/dnsmasq' and the configuration file in
13'/usr/local/etc/dnsmasq.conf', so you may have to adjust these paths for
14your local installation. Here are the steps I followed to install and enable
15the dnsmasq service:
16  # svccfg import dnsmasq.xml
17  # svcadm enable dnsmasq
18
19To confirm that the service is enabled and online:
20
21  # svcs -l dnsmasq
22
23I've just started learning about SMF so if anyone has any
24corrections/feedback they are more than welcome.
