Network Solaris 8 on Intel TCP/IP

I have just installed solaris 8 for Intel on one of my machines at home and I have a cable modem connection with a static IP and I am using a linksys cable/dsl router to assign IP's to my machines. I was wondering if any of you guys know the specific files and examples of the files I have to configure on my solaris box so I can access the internet .
Thank you,

/etc/hosts, /etc/defaultrouter, /etc/notrouter, /etc/netmasks, /etc/defaultdomain. Most of these have entries in the man pages (man defaultrouter)

Go to http://sunsolve.sun.com and search for Network Setup & Modification
or
http://docs.sun.com and find your version of the OS - look for TCP/IP Configuration under the System Administrator collection.

Are you trying to assign your IP from the Linksys via DHCP? You'll need a /etc/dhcp.<interface> file. For example, if your interface is hme0 "touch /etc/dhcp.hme0"

No need to edit the defaultrouter and resolv.conf if using DHCP, the system takes care of that for you.
