Problem to detect a net card

People i install a solaris 9 in a sparc platform this is the 3 time that i install it on this machine, the problem now is that when i do a ifconfig -a i only see the loop conection and no the hme0, i don`t remember if during the installation i set the option not networked.


Any ideas? how to restart the netcard or something, yesterday the netcard work perfect i don't think that the net card is the problem.

Thank you for your time.

I might be mistaken because i have had nothing to do with SunOS for several years, but how about

Code:
ifconfig hme0 plumb

Shouldn't this activate the network card so that a following "ifconfig" can configure the IP address?

I hope this helps.

Yes

Yes that works but always i have to do it, if a reset the sparc, it`s not a usb it's a net card from the inside.

Thank you

enter the needed information to the config files. in your case:
- /etc/hosts
- /etc/netmasks (if needed)
- /etc/hostname.hme0

Hi,

First ensures the card is inserted properly.
take a reboot of the system. after system came up .
use prtdaig -v to check card is detected or not.
If it is dected then plumb that port.

Thanks
