Disable GUI Desktop on Solaris 10.


dear all,

I am a newbie on Solaris. Currently, I am installing the newest
version ( Solaris 10 ). As the used machine is limited in resources,
I need to disable the GUI desktop to free unused resources.

Please let me know on how to do it.
Thank you in advance.

Note :
As I am very familiar with RedHat Linux, it is simply
edit /etc/inittab and change the inital runlevel to 3
to disable the desktop/GUI.

To disable the GUI startup: /usr/dt/bin/dtconfig -d
And, to enable it again: /usr/dt/bin/dtconfig -e
