Tomas,

In addition to what Brian suggested, check that you've included " dns" after 
"files"  on the "hosts" line of /etc/nsswitch.conf and that you have valid dns 
entries in /etc/resolv.conf

As for installing only the console (i.e. not installing the unwanted GUI bits) 
you should look into the SUNWCrnet metacluster.  Solaris gets installed based 
on one of selected metaclusters (package groups) that you choose at install 
time. It is one of  essential enablers for  building minimized 
installations, providing you with flexibility to add desired packaged software 
on top of it.   There's also a Solaris Package Companion project that will 
likely be of interest & help to you.

Regards,
Isaac

If you can figure out how to get to a commandline interface. (Terminal
or console).

A couple of things to check. Netstat -i to verify you have the correct
default route. ifconfig -a to make sure your IP settings are correct.
Try pinging your own IP and the default gateway's IP., then ping the
IP of your DNS server.

If they all work you need to check and fix your DNS settings..

(Try typing 'host www.yahoo.ca')
