  • Don't accept that your SysAdmin (or yourself?) have installed a Solaris box and then made sure to not to install the GNU tools. What a nice guy he/she is?. No need to trip up yourself. We have +500 Solaris hosts where I work and of course they have by default the standard GNU tools installed. We never run into these issues. :-) Commented Mar 6, 2014 at 16:27
