Network Path Not Found Error "Sunfire V100"

louisd11 · #1 (**permalink**) 12-12-2006

I recently got this new old server from a friend. I just installed a fresh version of Solaris 10 on it. I have put a static IP of 192.168.100.10 the server. Their is no subnetting scheme on the network. And I made the hostname "SunServ." And I also changed the folder "/etc/inet/hosts" because I kept getting this error

Quote:

"Dec 12 10:37:06 SunServ sendmail[278]: unable to qualify my own domain name (S
unServ) -- using short name
Dec 12 10:37:06 SunServ sendmail[278]: [ID 702911 mail.alert] unable to qualify
my own domain name (SunServ) -- using short name
Dec 12 10:37:06 SunServ sendmail[279]: unable to qualify my own domain name (Sun
Serv) -- using short name
Dec 12 10:37:06 SunServ sendmail[279]: [ID 702911 mail.alert] unable to qualify"

So I added the line Sunserv.ciscolab.com because we do have a domain name on our network. So I would like to access ther server and put files on it. But when I go on a windows machinen and type in "\\SunServ" in run I get the "Cannot find the network path" error. And the same error comes up when I type in the IP. SO how do I add the server to the network so I can add files and folders?

\\SunServ will not work, maybe if you had samba installed it might..
Use ftp

SO I can't use it as a network storage device? How can I enable FTP on the machine?

you CAN use it as network storage device... with nfs (which is the default in unix) or you can install samba to use it in your windows environment. ftp is enabled by default! look in "/etc/inetd.conf" for "ftpd" and make sure the user you use for ftp is NOT in "/etc/ftpd/ftpusers" (afair....)

This is what was in /etc/inetd.conf:

Quote:

# Legacy configuration file for inetd(1M). See inetd.conf(4).
#
# This file is no longer directly used to configure inetd.
# The Solaris services which were formerly configured using this file
# are now configured in the Service Management Facility (see smf(5))
# using inetadm(1M).
#
# Any records remaining in this file after installation or upgrade,
# or later created by installing additional software, must be converted
# to smf(5) services and imported into the smf repository using
# inetconv(1M), otherwise the service will not be available. Once
# a service has been converted using inetconv, further changes made to
# its entry here are not reflected in the service.
#
#
# CacheFS daemon. Provided only as a basis for conversion by inetconv(1M).
#
100235/1 tli rpc/ticotsord wait root /usr/lib/fs/cachefs/cachefsd cachefsd"
# TFTPD - tftp server (primarily used for booting)
#tftp dgram udp6 wait root /usr/sbin/in.tftpd in.tftpd -s /tft
pboot

What do I need to edit in this file?

Edit: Nm I figured it out Thankyou for your help
