Disabling OpenSolaris desktop auto-start

Tutorial Icon: 

As a Solaris administrator I love using the command line. One annoyance I find when installing Solaris 10 is the auto-start of the desktop environment. This is a quick tip on how to disable auto-start of the desktop. Open a console and issue:


/usr/dt/bin/dtconfig -d

This should disable the desktop from startup the next time you reboot. To re-enable desktop startup upon boot issue:

/usr/dt/bin/dtconfig -e

This will re-enable the desktop environment upon startup.
