Is there anyone willing to throw me a bone on this? I've really been  
trying to work it out, zapped the zone many times and tried different  
approaches...

In setting up a new network interface I get the error "Unable to find  
an address entry for my_new_domain with the specified DNS  
configuration". Well, ok, sure, I was in the process of setting up the  
configuration I thought, so this fact doesn't surprise me. But  
obviously it wants me to have set something up previously somewhere -  
but where?

How I got here:

I've successfully installed OpenSolaris 2008.05 and have it running,  
even managed to install the AMP stack and see the webserver running.  
Now I'm moving on to try and teach myself about Zones. Running  
different web applications each in their own Zone is what is  
attracting me to Solaris right now.

I've run into the above error whether I try to use shared IP or  
exclusive IP zones, and I can't seem to get past it.

My install is actually running inside a VMware virtual machine to  
which I've added several extra (virtual) network interfaces, and I  
have plenty of IP addresses available on my local subnet.

I tried creating a 'static dhcp' address in my D-Link router with the  
MAC address the interface on this zone reports with ifconfig -a

I tried choosing "none" in the setup and then manually adding in all  
the /etc files needed as per
http://dlc.sun.com/osol/docs/content/SYSADV3/ipconfig-63.html#ipconfig-64
http://dlc.sun.com/osol/docs/content/SYSADV3/ipconfig-12.html#ipconfig-17

in the later case I can't even ping my local subnet now... :-(

zone# ping 192.168.0.105
ICMP Host Unreachable from gateway localhost (127.0.0.1)

zone# route add default 192.168.0.1
add net default: gateway 192.168.0.1 is unreachable

Thanks in advance for any pointers.
