Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] Need good beginner guide to network configuration in OpenIndiana/OpenSolaris with NWAM
Hi Jonathan Thanks , but I'm running OpenIndiana without display. So what i need is commandline methods. I already configured static networking with classic network configuration in solaris ( with the help of the link you gave) Now i just want to know how networking can be configured in commandline using NWAM.

It changed a lot between 134 to 148, which caused me grief because I have a local replica of an LDAP server and use that for all naming requests ... and LDAP and NIS+ are now able to be controlled via the nwam system ... If I was on a stand-alone system I would still use network/physical:default, but I'm on a laptop which moves between sites (and connects over openVPN sometimes), so I struggled with and got NWAM working for me. If you right click on the Network Status Notification Icon and go to Network Preferences change Show: to Network Profile click on User (if it is there) or create a new profile and click Edit you now have the ability to specify all the connections that you want to be enabled (if the cards aren't there click on the Connections button at the top) I have VirtualBox installed so my configuration has: Always enable these connections: Wired (vboxnet0) Addresses: (v4) 192.168... and Then enable exactly one of these connections: Wired (bge0) Addresses: (v4) DHCP ... Wireless (iwh0) Addresses: (v4) DHCP... If you then click on Show at the top you should be able to modify all the settings for the specific cards ordered by the profile then by the interfaces. If you click on Connection Status under Show, click on Locations, click on Automatic and click on Edit you have the ability to edit the name services that you need and can specify a custom nsswitch.conf file (do check that the file has the correct name by OKing everything and then trying it again, for some reason it went wrong sometimes and picked a random file from /etc you can't seem to set LDAP as a name service for NoNet as a location for some reason ... :) I hope this helps any.
