please post the output of the command:

Code:
# dladm show-dev

the "lo0" interface is the loopback interface. we need to find your network card. the above command will tell us!

Hi,

Run the below commands to assign the static IP to your machine:

#dladm show-dev

see the instance name of the ethernet card looks like (bge0, hme0, pcn0.......)

Code:
# ifconfig bge0/hme0/pcn0 192.168.0.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 up

It will assign the above IP address to your machine. To make it permanent so that it could be available after reboot:

Edit the below files:

/etc/inet/hosts
/etc/inet/ipnodes
/etc/hostname.interface

Please revert back to this forum if this doesn't solve your purpose.

Thanks,
Deepak

To keep the forums high quality for all users, please take the time to format your posts correctly.

First of all, use Code Tags when you post any code or data samples so others can easily read your code. You can easily do this by highlighting your code and then clicking on the # in the editing menu. (You can also type code tags [code] and [/code] by hand.)

Second, avoid adding color or different fonts and font size to your posts. Selective use of color to highlight a single word or phrase can be useful at times, but using color, in general, makes the forums harder to read, especially bright colors like red.

Third, be careful when you cut-and-paste, edit any odd characters and make sure all links are working property.

Thank You.

Well when I put the command dladm show-deb

Code:
# dladm show-dev
The message is:

Hi Deepak
When I put the command:

Code:
in /etc/inet/
cat hosts
127.0.0.1    localhost loghost paolo

also
Code:
 in /etc/inet/
cat hosts
127.0.0.1    localhost loghost paolo

but
Code:
 in /etc
cat hostname.interface
cat: cannot open hostname.interface

it looks like you don't have a useable network card in your machine... you might need to install special drivers for solaris to make use of your hardware.
