right, i said id be back and here i am...

isntalled ubuntu, very straight forward everything autoinstalled... but back to a challenge!

this is how far i've got...

- a new clean install of Solaris 10
- a router for the internet on IP '172.26.0.1' (which works fine, as i have other machines running windows connected fine)
- for arguements sake, this new solaris machine will use IP '172.26.0.44' and the name of the machine is 'unix'
- i have made the following changes:

/etc/hosts
172.26.0.44 localhost loghost unix

/etc/netmasks
172.26.0.0 255.255.255.0

/etc/nsswitch.conf
(contains) host: files dns

/etc/nsswitch.dns
(contains) host: files dns
ipnodes: files dns


created /etc/hostname.lo0
172.26.0.44 unix

created /etc/defaultrouter
172.26.0.1

created /etc/resolv.conf
nameserver 80.58.0.33
nameserver 80.58.32.97


/etc/inet/hosts
172.26.0.44 unix

/etc/inet/ipnodes
172.26.0.44 unix

and it does still not work...

in addition, i have doen the following:

# svcadm /network/dns/client:default
# svcadm /network/dns/server:default

but it still doesnt work...

at this stage, i think im making a small mistake, but not sure where... any help would be greatly appreciated.

thank you in advance

edit :

i can ping my own machine (172.26.0.44) but not the router (172.26.0.1) or anything obviously past the router
