I have done that.  As it seemed a good/safe thing, I have
now created a new BE and activated/booted that so  I can start
again from here if going forward fails yet again...

o.k.   But if I am doing that, why don't I just run utinstall
rather than utsetup?  Surely at the point utsetup
bombs out it has only done the utinstall part anyway...

o.k.

Ah - you are the first person to say that and I have not
spotted in in any web pages/forums/wikis etc...

o.k., I need to think about this....

I can clearly bring up my net1 interface and
manually give it an IP address etc using ipadm

[My machine in question
normally gets given   192.168.199.7  for its sunray interconnect IP address.]

Can I then use

    utadm -A 192.168.199.0

or does -A not work either?

Would I need to also issue

   utadm -L on

I don't want SunRay service running on the net0 interface though.
So if I do have to issue   utadm -L on   would
I then need to issue   utadm -D x.y.z.0  (where x.y.z.0
is the range I have on net0).

If I can use  -A, then it think that will start a DHCP service - yes? or
does that not work either on Solaris 11??

Thanks for the help.

Dave Price
