so you don't have a interface called "hme0". your interface name is "e1000g0". so your command should look like:
Code:
ifconfig e1000g0 plumb

Thanks duke..
What should i do to configure "hme0" instead of using "e1000g0"

Don't worry about hme0/e1000g0, They are just "names" that identify network interfaces. hme0 is generally used on SPARC Hw. Depending the NIC card you have, the driver you use, then the name you use to configure a network interface. There are many other different names like qfe or ge for instance.

Cheers
