Hi All, Really hoping someone out there can help.
I am new to Solaris/OpenSolaris but have a reasonable amount of experience with Linux. I have recently installed OpenSolaris 2009.06 snv_111b X86 on a HP Visualize P750 workstation. The system is booting and running fine with the majority of hardware and services operating correctly. However I am having problems with the network adaptor that I cannot find a solution to. The ethernet adaptor is an AMD PCnet32 LANCE and is using the pcn driver. The adaptor is able to obtain an IP address and other network configuration details via DHCP, however network performance is very slow and unreliable. Web pages do not load, and establishing an SSH connection to the linux box next to it takes around 5 minutes. The same network card has been tested on the same physical network using a Ubuntu live cd. Additionally I have tried another network cable and switch port. dladm show-ether yields the following: Link: pcn0 ptype: current state:unknown auto:no speed-duplex: 0M pause:none MTU is set to 1500 (shown by dladm show-linkprop pcn0) Not really sure where to go from here, but without a network connection the box isn't very much fun! Any advice or guidance would be appreciated. Thanks, Lee -- This message posted from opensolaris.org
