[rt-users] Installing RT in Solaris

[Keith Paskett]

There is no compiling necessary. The blastwave installer will download 
and install a copy of perl with all the appropriate modules. Everything 
gets installed at /opt/csw. I typically set up RT in a local zone so 
it's easy to play around with and start over if I mess something up. In 
fact, by putting the zone in a ZFS file system, I can restore the whole 
zone to a point in time using ZFS snapshots in about 5 minutes.

After installing there will be a blastwave specific readme at 
/opt/csw/rt3/share/doc/README.CSW
