Trying to get Solaris 10 on the Internet

Hello! I'm having trouble getting this to work so I ask kindly if I can get some help to get it to work, please Smilie

.

I installed Solaris 10 (nov 06) on a laptop and I been trying to get it to connect to the router (wired connection) and it doesn't work.

I have a 2wire 2700HG router that has 4 ethernet ports on the back so I simply grabbed an Ethernet cable and plugged it in.

Router address is 192.168.1.254

I go ahead and edit /etc/hosts to :

127.0.0.1 localhost loghost Warturtle
192.168.1.83 Warturtle

I then create /etc/resolv.conf (It wasn't there so I made it) and add this line:

nameserver 192.168.1.254

I also go into /etc/nsswitch.conf and /etc/nsswitch.dns and set hosts and ipnodes to files dns

I can't ping the router at all and the ethernet cable has orange and yellow colors in the laptop ethernet connector.

Here's some output I thought would be helpfull:

# ifconfig -a
lo0: flags=2001000849<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv4,VIRTUAL> mtu 8232 index 1
inet 127.0.0.1 netmask ff000000
# netstat -rn

Routing Table: IPv4
Destination Gateway Flags Ref Use Interface
-------------------- -------------------- ----- ----- ------ ---------
224.0.0.0 127.0.0.1 U 1 0 lo0
127.0.0.1 127.0.0.1 UH 8 195 lo0
# cat /etc/inet/hosts
#
# Internet host table
#
127.0.0.1 localhost loghost Warturtle
192.168.1.83 Warturtle

       unbound-streamtcp sends a DNS Query of the given type and class for the given name to the DNS server over TCP and displays the response.

       If  the	server to query is not given using the -f option then localhost (127.0.0.1) is used. More queries can be given on one commandline,

       name   This name is resolved (looked up in the DNS).

       type   Specify the type of data to lookup.

       class  Specify the class to lookup for.

       -u     Use UDP instead of TCP. No retries are attempted.

       -n     Do not wait for the answer.

       -s     Use SSL.

       -h     Print program usage.

       -f ipaddr[@port]
	      Specify the server to send the queries to. If not specified localhost (127.0.0.1) is used.

EXAMPLES

       Some examples of use.

       $ unbound-streamtcp www.example.com A IN

       $ unbound-streamtcp -f 192.168.1.1 www.example.com SOA IN
