I have a Solris 10 upgrade gone wrong. I want to try to get the system up w/out rebuilding. It is a test system so I can rebuild later but now I need it up!

I cannot start multiple services - the first is rpb-bind.

rpcbind failed with 1.
[ Apr 6 10:20:21 Method "start" exited with status 1 ]
[ Apr 6 10:20:21 Executing start method ("/lib/svc/method/rpc-bind start") ]
/lib/svc/method/rpc-bind: /dev/msglog: cannot create
rpcbind failed with 1.

/dev/mslog exists and I can "access" it. I can write to the root directory...

I have now had this problem happen twice: once was a bad upgrade, I had to reinstall almost every package on the dvd manually - but then the system worked and has for months (although Sun said I should have rebuilt it).

Happened again - but I had screwed up /etc/security/device_policy!!! Caused all sorts of havoc and never figured it out on my own - had to call sun :(
