Yes, you are right, Solaris docs are rather sparse. I think the best place is the Sun site. It has a number of pdfs that can be downloaded and that appear to cover everything more in depth than any of the (few) books that are currently in print.

Please refrain from asking for free downloads of copyrighted / non free material. This is breaking LQ rules.

As already stated, there are plenty of free documentation and information available on docs.sun.com and other sites.

You can start by reading this FAQ: http://opensolaris.org/os/community/...on/newbie_faq/
