i have attached the o/p of netstat -i
pls have a look

i've made a mess out of that netstat -r..
so here is the attachment

Looking back, it seems that nge0 doesn't have a useful IP address. Can you try setting it manually to something in the 192.168.1.x space? x should be as random as you can make it, if you know what I mean ... If you pick an address which is already taken, things will get a bit interesting (but probably not more than you can handle -- just pick another address and try again).

Check that the default route to 192.169.1.2 is still there after you do this. At least on Linux, I've seen a useful default route disappear after you coincidentally set a new IP address in that network /-:

Hi ,
I tried changing the ip to a random address, but that still didnt work...
I also checked /etc/defaultrouter, changed that value as well...
but nothing seems to be working....

My ISP is airtel.
I have a manual to tell me how to setup the connection for the prescribed modem (that they have given)...
I followed that and have setup the dns server ips and the other stuff...

yet there is no luck...

Again, instead of trying (and failing for some reason) to configure the network manually, you should re-enable nwam which is automatically doing all the settings for you without any other requirements provided your network provides a correct DHCP service.

Code:

svcadm disable physical:default
svcadm enable physical:nwam

wait for the configuration to be done

Code:

ifconfig -a
netstat -rn
grep "^host" /etc/nsswitch.conf
cat /etc/resolv.conf

sys-unconfig maybe...

I'm thinking all your config are correct, maybe the problem is somewhere else...

From your own PC wintel desktop can you open your web browser and check if you are accessing internet thru a proxy or anything like that?

If you are accessing internet thru a proxy then maybe on the sun server web browser configure it to go thru the same proxy also.
