Good. The driver has attached to your network interface. The simplest way to configure your network interface is to use the command
sys-unconfig The down side is that this command will also wipe out some of the basic configuration details on your system - the answers to the questions you were asked at install time (and some you weren't since the new installer doesn't yet ask them. If there is a DHCP server available on your network, then a reboot should give you network connectivity. I would not expect this to work on your system though, since the network interface should already have been plumbed before you rn the "ifconfig -a plumb" command, so DHCP would already have attempted to configure the interface. To manually set up your network interface using the GNOME GUI, you first need to disable NWAM (NetWork Auto Magic - see http://www.opensolaris.org/os/project/nwam/), and enable the "normal" network service as follows: svcadm disable network/physical:nwam svcadm enable network/physical:default I would also reboot once you have done this before attempting to use the GNOME GUI tool. You will need the following information to configure your network interface: An IP address to give the computer The address of your default gateway, e.g. your broadband router The address of at least one valid DNS server. Usually you can set this to the IP address of your broadband router, if you have such a thing A hostname to give your computer (which should already be set anyway) A domain name on which your computer should be listed. I set this to my broadband provider's domain name. If the GNOME GUI fails to configure your network interface then post back here and I can give you the instructions for manually configuring the card, which is the method I use. Cheers Andrew.
