Yes a DHCP server ! or a switch/router with an inbuilt DHCP server. You should be able to manually allocate the IP adress to test the Driver/NIC/hardware the commands: # ifconfig rge0 plumb # ifconfig rge0 192.168.0.5 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.0.255 up should give you an active NIC if you use the appropriate IP adress for you network instead of the example address above the server ougth to be able to "ping" its neigbours on the same subnetwork . if this works you know that the driver/NIC/Hardware "chain" is intact and the problem is only configuration. if it does not work, your problem is with the motherboard or driver or network cable/switch //Lars This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ opensolaris-help mailing list opensolaris-help@opensolaris.org
