I don't have root access. How do I find i.p address of our sun server? Thanks.

Use this command:

$ ifconfig -a


Your output will be like this:

lo0: flags=849<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 8232
inet 127.0.0.1 netmask ff000000
hme0: flags=863<UP,BROADCAST,NOTRAILERS,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
inet 10.14.1.20 netmask fffffc00 broadcast 10.14.1.255

You will have either a le0, hme0, qfe0...the inet is the IP address.
Check the man page on ifconfig

some admins (such as myself) like to chmod 000 the ifconfig utility, so try pinging a host (your IP will be displayed when you do), that usually works.

hostname -i

or open /etc/hosts
you'll see the list

I believe that you can ping the hostname.

ping `hostname`

This should return the IP address.

# ping `hostname`
PING myhost: 64 byte packets
64 bytes from 192.111.111.34: icmp_seq=0. time=0. ms
64 bytes from 192.111.111.34: icmp_seq=1. time=0. ms

----myhost PING Statistics----
2 packets transmitted, 2 packets received, 0% packet loss

Hope this helps!!!
