How To Disable User Registration

You can disable User Registration before or after installing Solaris software. Before disabling Solaris User Registration, Sun recommends that system administrators register for their organization.

1. To disable user registration before installing the Solaris release, select one of the following:

   • Deselect the SUNWsregu package (interactive installation).

   • Modify a custom JumpStart profile to not install the SUNWsregu package.

   • Create and run a finish script that creates a file named solregis in the /etc/default directory on one or more systems with the following line in the script:

     DISABLE=1

     
     

   For more information see Solaris 9 12/03 Installation Guide or solregis(1).

2. To disable user registration after installing the Solaris release, select one of the following:

   • Remove the SUNWsregu package

   • Add the solregis file to the /etc/default directory.
