How can I enable System V IPC? Ipcs says it isn't configured in.



There's nothing you need to do to enable System V IPC, but on boot
up "ipcs" always says: 




	IPC status from <running system> as of <date>


	Message Queue facility not in system.


	Shared Memory facility not in system.


	Semaphore facility not in system.


This just means that no one has yet used the Message Queue/Shared Memory
or Semaphore facility yet. They'll be loaded on first use.


If you really want to have them loaded at boot time, add the
following to /etc/system: 




	forceload: sys/msgsys


	forceload: sys/semsys


	forceload: sys/shmsys


In Solaris 7, ipcs will report the unloaded facilities as inactive rather
than "not present in system".
