DNS - /etc/resolv.conf
cp -p nsswitch.conf nsswitch.dns

Uh.. that should be

Code:
cp /etc/nsswitch.dns /etc/nsswitch.conf

Or you might consider DHCP if your network is capable..

Hostname is only a minor bit of info a DHCP server can provide. More importantly, it can provide your IP, nameservers, domain name, and default router info... My node's all know their names. And I've had hosts with no name because I was too lazy to give them one Smilie

here is the solution

first create resolv.conf into /etc/inet and then

Code:
vi resolv.conf

Code:
domain sun.com
nameserver DNS IP
nameserver DNS IP

after that

Code:
cd /etc
chown root:sys ./inet/resolv.conf
ln s ./inet/resolv.conf

after that I added in nsswitch.con on hosts DNS

and final check
Code:
cat /etc/default/router

My mozilla opened google.com

Add Default route

touch /etc/defaultrouter
<gateway IP> /etc/defaultrouter

vi /etc/resolve.conf
nameserver <Primary DNS IP>
nameserver <Secondry DNS IP>.

after this restart network service it will work.
