Solaris is a Unix operating system introduced by Sun Microsystems in 1992 as the successor to SunOS.

Solaris is known for its scalability, especially on SPARC systems, and for originating many innovative features such as DTrace and ZFS. Solaris supports SPARC-based and x86-based workstations and servers from Sun and other vendors, with efforts underway to port to additional platforms.

Solaris is certified against the Single Unix Specification. Although it was historically developed as proprietary software, it is supported on systems manufactured by all major server vendors, and the majority of its codebase is now open source software via the OpenSolaris project.

A. you'll have to share it out using SAMBA, so that the two boxes can talk to each other. of course, you could also use FTP but it sounds like you want a more seamless connection.. also note that the line-endings are different for unix and windows, you might need to run the 'unix2dos' tool on the file so it will look nice in notepad.

Q. Is it true that Solaris Operating System in built using Java?
Asked by Ahmad - Mon Aug 3 03:57:33 2009 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments

A. The other answer is correct: - Solaris is written mostly in C (and a bit of C++) - Solaris and Java both come from Sun Microsystems (soon, Oracle) I thought you might find it interesting to see the actual source of Solaris, which is available at: There's a search engine built on top of the source repository. Search for a path or symbol and it will show you both the uses and definitions within the Solaris source.
