Question ID10t Can't even download Solaris 10--duh??


I apologize in advance gents ( & lady), but I have an incredibly stupid problem. I went to Sun, I filled out the account-ish thing, and I still cannot download the distro. "You are not a member", or "You do not have the juice", or "You do not know the secret handshake" type messages are all I get. Did I miss something? Anybody else have this problem? Or uh, (just thought of this) do I need to let it set a cookie? I don't believe it asked to, and while I don't usually allow cookies (thank you firebird, uh phoenix, uh firefox), I think I would have let Sun set one. I just don't think it came up.

Thank you in advance,

Haakon B. Dahl

BTW: Downloading/CD burning machine is a flawless* WinXP machine--is that a factor? It downloaded DSL no sweat, but that instance is not ready for prime-time.

*May be flawed.

If you can't download Solaris 10 for some reason, try Solaris Express, people who failed with Solaris 10 seems to be luckier with that one.

Sun does need to set a cookie so your login works. I just disabled my cookies and was not able to login.

Thanks--I'll give it a whirl, but may not be able to until this weekend. *sigh*
