On Solaris 9 cannot get #nslookup www.sun.com cannot find server #ping www.sun.com no answer to work . However using Netscape I can navigate to any page and it seems to work okay. Setting up email I can receive email but cannot send. Get a message SNMP authentication failure. Mail settings have been double checked and seem okay. I installed Solaris9 on this box in 2004 and am trying to get the network settings installed, which were not installed on the original installation of Solaris9. Did not feel confortable using sys-unconfig. The box is on a P2P network attached via cat5 cable to a switch/router/serial modem to my dial up ISP. Would appreciate a check of the relevant files I have changed and a mention any I have forgot to change. /etc/resolv.conf nameserver 192.168.0.1 /etc/nsswitch.conf hosts: files dns ( "dns" added after files on hosts: line ) /eyc/hosts 127.0.0.1 localhost ( should loopback be inserted after 127.0.0.1 ) 192.168.0.106 ultra2 loghost /etc/defaultrouter 192.168.0.1 /etc/hostname.home0 ultra2 Gnome Desktop open Applications/CDE Menu/Hosts/Workstation Info shows User Name: root Workstation Name: ultra2 Type: SunUV,Ultra-2;sparc;sun4u Internet(IP)Address: ffff: 192.168.0.106 Host ID: 809ae227 Network Domain: (Couldn't Ascertain) Internet Domain: nothing displayed here Thanks Basil
