Lasse,
I did a new BE and tried your suggestions.

I stopped NWAM service, got rid of DHCP definition, created hostname.e1000g0 and edited /etc/hosts, according your suggestion.
Basically, I substituted header "OpenSolaris 2008.11 Installation/Configuration 
Instructions" upto and including NWAM part with your suggestions.



Then I checked network connection but connection is dead. Is this expected, or 
must connection work before I continue installation?

r...@frasse:/etc# ifconfig -a
lo0: flags=2001000849<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv4,VIRTUAL> mtu 8232 
index 1
inet 127.0.0.1 netmask ff000000 e1000g0: flags=1000843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv4> mtu 1500 index 2
        inet 0.0.0.0 netmask ff000000 broadcast 0.255.255.255
ether 0:1b:21:1e:2e:d0 vboxnet0: flags=201000843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv4,CoS> mtu 1500 index 3
        inet 192.168.56.1 netmask ff000000 broadcast 192.255.255.255
ether 8:0:27:eb:d0:da lo0: flags=2002000849<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv6,VIRTUAL> mtu 8252 index 1 inet6 ::1/128 Then I did the DNS stuff as described in http://wiki.sun-rays.org/index.php/SRSS_4.1_on_OpenSolaris_2008.11#OpenSolaris_2009.06
# cp /etc/nsswitch.dns /etc/nsswitch.conf
# svcadm enable dns/client
# svcadm restart dns/client
But still I have no connection.
I rebooted and still no connection:

or...@frasse:~$ ifconfig -a
lo0: flags=2001000849<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv4,VIRTUAL> mtu 8232 
index 1
inet 127.0.0.1 netmask ff000000 e1000g0: flags=1000851<UP,POINTOPOINT,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv4> mtu 1500 index 2 inet 192.168.0.181 --> 127.0.0.1 netmask ffffff00 vboxnet0: flags=201000843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv4,CoS> mtu 1500 index 3
        inet 192.168.56.1 netmask ffffff00 broadcast 192.168.56.255
lo0: flags=2002000849<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv6,VIRTUAL> mtu 8252 
index 1
inet6 ::1/128


So I must first get a connection before I continuing with the rest of the 
install, right?

YES, but it looks like the I/F is started in the display above but it where does the "----> 127.0.0.01 " string come from ? and you have no braodcast address ? on the e1000g0 I/F so its still wrong somewhere. the netmask is probably corret though.

Does your /etc/hosts file still contain the hostname as an alias for localhost ? ( a DHCP "feature" )
 If so remove it ,   the /etc/hosts file should  look like this :


127.0.0.1 localhost 192.168.0.181 orvar loghost


Just to confirm, if I want a SunRay server, I need a static IP? To get a static 
IP adress is essential?


If DHCP changes the adress when you boot. there vill be problems with the Sun Rays finding the authorization/firmware download server. Particularly if the AUTH server gets put in a DCHP optiontype 49 and 66 record .
