       I have been playing with Solaris 10 on a few of my machines before
       letting it loose in the wild (ie, the labs).

       I am looking for any best-practice guides for services run by
       smf that can be turned off, and if there is a way that I can
       create a profile that I could propogate to 150+ machines or
       through jumpstart ..

       .. any insight is appreciated.

If not for the "no filtering possible on loopback" limitation in Solaris, I'd
recommend a generic filter policy using the version of Darren Reed's
IP Filter which ships with Solaris 10.  With this limitation, packet filters
do not provide protection against local attacks.

Are you already using generic_limited_net.xml?
Do you have a site profile? (/var/svc/profile/site.xml)

According to smf-discuss (opensolaris list), the next version of JASS
will have SMF support.
