It’s here! Solaris10 5/04 (aka: B55, aka: Beta 3) has been released. This release includes ehancements to the vacation utility (it’s smart now), USB end-user device support enhancements, and the Common Solaris Target Disk Driver which combines the 3 drivers sd (sparc), sd (x86), and ssd (fibre channel) into a single driver. There have also been revisions made to Dtrace (user-proccess tracing on x86), Kerberos (AES crypto), and the Solaris Linker and Libraries. The updates to the linker and libraries is a biggy which all developers need to immediately look into and report back to Sun; they have restructured and moved several libs from /usr/lib to /lib, they have added more flexablity in dependency tracking to crle (-A argument), and mostly notably have stopped providing system archive libraries which impacts the creation of static binaries.
