Problems connecting Solaris 10 to network via ISP
I have just installed Solaris 10 (x86) on my PC, which is connected to an ISP via a Netgear DG834G firewall/modem router. I can't find the network. My router has the IP address 192.168.0.1 and my ISP assigned IP address is 214.159.X.Y
I have edited various files based upon information I have gleaned from the web, but still no joy. File edited/created:
/etc/hosts
214.159.X.Y hostname hostname.plus.net loghost
(question should these be separated by spaces or tabs?)
/etc/nodename
hostname
/etc/inet/hosts
127.0.0.1 localhost
214.159.X.Y hostname hostname.plus.net loghost
/etc/defaultrouter
192.168.0.1
/etc/resolv.conf
nameserver 212.159.13.49
nameserver 212.159.13.50
/etc/hosts.deny
ALL:ALL
/etc/netmasks
214.159.X.Y 255.255.255.0
/etc/hostname.lo0
hostname
(is the ethernet interface on a x86 sys lo0?)
I have clearly got something wrong or missed something out. Any help would be very gratefully received.
Many thanks,
Chris.

Hi,
I've been trying to find out for the past two days how to set my Solaris 10 to join wireless network (Airport base station with ACL and wep or wpa on).
Using ethernet is a bit out of question as I don't have an ethernet cable that would reach the other side of the house.

I am trying to connect a Solaris 10 PC to the internet via a Linksys router and a cable modem. I have tried following suggestions in one of the posts here for manual setup but so far no luck.
Does the Solaris 10 install for x86 automatically pick up the internet connection?

sys-unconfig
sys-unconfig(1M) System Administration Commands sys-unconfig(1M)
NAME
sys-unconfig - undo a system's configuration
SYNOPSIS
/usr/sbin/sys-unconfig
DESCRIPTION
The sys-unconfig command is used to restore a system's configuration to an "as-manufactured" state, ready to be reconfigured again. The
system's configuration consists of hostname, Network Information Service (NIS) domain name, timezone, IP address, IP subnet mask, and root
password. This operation is the inverse of those performed by the sysidnet(1M), sysidns(1M), and sysidsys(1M) programs run at boot. See
sysidtool(1M).
sys-unconfig does the following:
o Saves current /etc/inet/hosts file information in /etc/inet/hosts.saved.
o If the current /etc/vfstab file contains NFS mount entries, saves the /etc/vfstab file to /etc/vfstab.orig.
o Restores the default /etc/inet/hosts file.
o Removes the default hostname in /etc/hostname.interface files for all interfaces configured when this command is run. To determine
which interfaces are configured, run the command 'ifconfig-a'. The /etc/hostname.interface files corresponding to all of the inter-
faces listed in the resulting output, with the exception of the loopback interface (lo0), will be removed.
o Removes the default domainname in /etc/defaultdomain.
o Restores the timezone to PST8PDT in /etc/TIMEZONE.
o Disables the Network Information Service (NIS) and Network Information Service Plus (NIS+) if either NIS or NIS+ was configured.
o Removes the file /etc/inet/netmasks.
o Removes the file /etc/defaultrouter.
o Removes the password set for root in /etc/shadow.
o Removes the file /etc/.rootkey.
o Executes all system configuration applications. These applications are defined by prior executions of a sysidconfig -a application.
(See sysidconfig(1M)). When sys-unconfig is run, all system configuration applications are passed one argument, -u.
o Removes the file /etc/resolv.conf.
o Disables LDAP by removing /var/ldap/ldap_client_cache, /var/ldap/ldap_client_file, /var/ldap/ldap_client_cred, and
/var/ldap/cachemgr.log.
o Regenerates keys for sshd(1M).
When sys-unconfig is finished, it performs a system shutdown. sys-unconfig is a potentially dangerous utility and can only be run by the
super user.
