Cloning zones in Solaris 10 6/06

I googled for "Cloning Solaris Zones" and found lots of documentation on the zoneadm clone feature. I started to follow the howtos and hit a brick wall... my zoneadm doesn't know how to clone. Deeper digging shows that the documentation on Sun's site was for Solaris Express- Sun's bleeding edge version of OpenSolaris- Can I say "How useless!"

Changing an IP address in Solaris 10

I'm just starting to deal with Solaris 10 machines and I ran into a really annoying issue. When trying to change the IP address by modifying the appropriate files (or so I thought) the ip address kept getting reset on reboot.
