Well, here's what happens: I have DHCP server on my router. When the problem occurs, my network interface gets 0.0.0.0 as IP address. When I set my IP address manually, I can ping 127.0.0.1 and whatever IP address I give to network card. When I try to ping my router, I usually get a response and can open its configuration page. I can't open anything beyond it that relies on DNS. I can't remember if I can ping beyond my router, but when this happenes, other computers connected to it don't have any connection problems.
Another problem is that this same problem happens even when I set the IP address manually. It shows correct IP address, but until I copy nsswitch I can't use DNS. My main problem is that I can't reproduce the problem and when it does show its ugly head, I usually need Internet right away so I focus on quick fix and don't research what happens. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org
