In /etc/hostname.gani0:
Code:
192.168.1.100

Netmask will be automatically set to /24.

create a hostname.gani0 file on /etc with the hostname or IP of the host.

Code:
# echo `hostname` > /etc/hostname.gani0

this will make the ip configuration persist across reboots.

make sure that there is no /etc/dhcp.gani0 file.
check the file /etc/nodename. it should only contain the hostname of your host.
check the file /etc/inet/hosts file. make sure there is a line there that contain like this:
Code:
192.168.1.100       <hostname of your computer as it is in /etc/nodename>

add to the /etc/inet/netmask the appropriate network and netmask, ie:
Code:
192.168.1.0      255.255.255.0

run the command:
Code:
ifconfig gani0 <hostname> netmask + broadcast + up

gani0 is name of his network interface not hostname... and to make route configuration persist across reboots he needs to edit /etc/defaultrouter not hosts databases.
