The information I provided was sufficiently complete to answer *both* of

You forget timezones, I received the message on the 26th, as would
anyone else east of GMT +2.

But if you started your search on the 25th you would include messages from
the 26th  |

mount(1M) and therein discover that Solaris does not support NTFS but
reading actual man pages seems to be beyond the capabilities of some
people.
Where was your help? |

OK, I refined the search to "solaris 10" mount ntfs and the first hit
answers the question.

Your searching is rather shallow. The same question was asked in
comp.unix.solaris on 25 Jun 2006 and was answered.
Your claims are rather shallow. I searched google for "solaris 10
+ntfs" and found nothing on that date.
Indeed, try the tread "solaris 10 6/06 filesystem support" from the 26th.
I get it now. When somebody wants to look if solaris 10 supports NTFS,
they should run a query on "solaris 10 6/06 filesystem support".

What you're seeing here is that lots of sun people are worthless assholes.
They're not able to do much more than come up with stupid quips, vs.
giving answers, or telling people to search the sun support sites- which
consist of the weakest most irrelevant search results and some of the
poorest documentation out there to begin with.
Luckily, solaris 10 is still pretty cool. |
