I attempt to use DHCP where I have the ISC DHCPD server on a Solaris 7 box that
is setup to always give this laptop the same IP. It works just fine under 7.1
and Windows98. So it isn't the DHCP server.
This is what was on console 3:
* eth0 is available -- using it for networking
* configuring eth0 ip: 207.159.154.115 nm: 255.255.255.240 nw: 207.159.154.112
* bc: 207.159.154.127
* reverse name lookup failed
I changed around the order of the nameservers and it started working. But
after asking me to check the names/DNS it gives:
SIOCSIFFLAGS: Device or resource busy
So it appears that it's not trying any of the secondary nameservers.
And that last error message seems to be illogical since it goes ahead and works
just fine.
And this was done off a cooker install that was rsynced off sunet around 7:00
US/Pacific time.
