Sun uses a new system for handling services that system involves DTD- 
based XML files.

I'd like to use edit and validate these files these files on my local  
system.

For whatever reason, Sun uses an absolute path for the document type...

Code:
<!DOCTYPE service_bundle SYSTEM '/usr/share/lib/xml/dtd/ 
service_bundle.dtd.1'>

I'd like to keep the DTDs locally, so I've copied the Solaris DTDs  
to /opt/xml/sun-SMF/dtd.

In my main (working) catalog file, I've added a <nextCatalog/> entry  
pointing to
/opt/xml/catalog.xml which in turn contains a number of <nextCatalog/ 
 > entries, including:

Code:
  <nextCatalog catalog="sun-SMF/catalog.xml" />


I've tried a number of variations of rewrites in the sun-SMF/ 
catalog.xml, but have yet to clear parser complaints about not  
finding /usr/share/lib/xml/dtd/service_bundle.dtd.1.

Basically, I need to rewrite the standard Sun SYSTEM identifier to  
point to my local files without 'tampering' with the content of the  
file itself.

Below is one of the iterations of the catalog I've tried and a sample  
markup. If someone can tell me what I'm doing wrong, I'd really  
appreciate it. If anyone cares to see them, the DTD files are  
available at...
