Sun Solaris Server Configuration System Files

UNIX Solaris
1

Dear All,

I am a Ubuntu Linux user and currently performing an audit on a Sun Solaris machine. As I am not too familiar with Sun Solaris, may I know where can I extract the following information from a Sun Solaris server.

/etc/profile
/etc/login.defs
/etc/pam.d/system-auth
/etc/security/limits.conf
/etc/pam.d/su
/var/log/failog
/var/log/messages
/etc/inetd.conf
/var/ftp
/etc/ftpusers
/etc/passwd
/etc/shadow
/etc/group
/etc/gshadow
/etc/sysconfig/authconfig
/etc/exports
/usr/sbin/wire-test
/etc/pam.d
/etc/lilo.conf
/etc/hosts.deny
/etc/host.allowxt
/etc/ssh/sshd_config
/usr/lib/misc/sftp-server
/var/log/lastlogt
/var/log/btmp
/etc/xinetd.conft
/etc/cron.allow
/etc/cron.deny
/etc/sysctl.conf
/etc/inetd.conf
/etc/lilo.conf.anaconda
/etc/securetty
/etc/lilo

Thank you in advance.

Dear gurus,

Actually what i need is For eg, Ubuntu may
have /etc/inetd but for ReD Hat there have
/etc/xined.d

Therefore for Sun Solaris, im not sure where is the
location of the below systemfiles:

/etc/profile
/etc/login.defs
/etc/pam.d/system-auth
/etc/security/limits.conf
/etc/pam.d/su
/var/log/failog
/var/log/messages
/etc/inetd.conf
/var/ftp
/etc/ftpusers
/etc/passwd
/etc/shadow
/etc/group
/etc/gshadow
/etc/sysconfig/authconfig
/etc/exports
/usr/sbin/wire-test
/etc/pam.d
/etc/lilo.conf
/etc/hosts.deny
/etc/host.allowxt
/etc/ssh/sshd_config
/usr/lib/misc/sftp-server
/var/log/lastlogt
/var/log/btmp
/etc/xinetd.conft
/etc/cron.allow
/etc/cron.deny
/etc/sysctl.conf
/etc/inetd.conf
/etc/lilo.conf.anaconda
/etc/securetty
/etc/lilo

Thanks in advance.

Many of those file, "lilo.conf" for starters, won't exist in a Solaris environment.

The simple answer is that equivalent information will be in the /etc file system but may be in a different format and under a different filename and direction.

Rather than take the blunderbuss approach why not split them into functionality areas.

eg

(a) file systems
(b) daemon management
(c) users and groups
(e) networking
(f) devices

etc.

You will, of course, find the definitive answers amongst Sun's copious documentation which is freely available from Sun Microsystems.
