I ad troubles applying a static address as well. And some of the guides are related to older versions of solaris as well so they may still apply but there are newer ways of doing some of the steps. Here is what I do: 1. /etc/nwam/llp bge0 static 10.2.2.132/24 2. /etc/hosts 127.0.0.1 localhost foo.my.domain foo loghost 10.2.2.132 foo.my.domain tape loghost 3. route -p add default 10.2.2.1 -p to add it permanently. This does not always work so I also add item 7. 4. /etc/nodename foo 5. /etc/defaultdomain my.domain 6. DNS Copy /etc/nsswitch.dns to /etc/nsswitch.conf. Start dns-client with svcadm enable svc:/network/dns/client 7. /etc/defaultrouter 10.2.2.1 HTH. -- regards Claus When lenity and cruelty play for a kingdom, the gentlest gamester is the soonest winner.
