    - Configure Security Policy:
       Specify Yes if the system will use the Kerberos security mechanism.
       Specify No if this system will use standard UNIX security.

    - Confirm the following information.  If it is correct, press F2;

SOLUTION SUMMARY:

Solution

To automate a Solaris 8 JumpStart installation, two keywords need to 
be appended to a Solaris 7 sysidcfg file.

    protocol_ipv6
    and
    security_policy    

Example of sysidcfg:

    system_locale=en_US
    timezone=US/Eastern
    timeserver=timeserver_ip_address
    terminal=sun-cmd
    name_service=NONE
    root_password=cut & paste from /etc/shadow

    network_interface=hme0    {protocol_ipv6=no}
    security_policy=NONE

Also, you must create separate paths to the sysidcfg files.
Example:

    /jumpstart/sysidcfg.sol7/sysidcfg
    /jumpstart/sysidcfg.sol8/sysidcfg

Example of /etc/bootparams entry for sysidcfg:

    sysid_config=server_name:/jumpstart/sysidcfg.sol8

NOTE: This is documented in the Solaris 8 "Advanced Installation Guide" on page
44. However, it is stated that the protocol_ipv6 keyword is optional if DHCP
is not used.
