In Belenix 0.7 I tried to switch from DHCP to static IP - without 
success. I did all the steps (that are normal for Solaris) described in 
the FAQ (No. 22), but all this had no effect. After reboot, it's DHCP again.

Also the "svcadm disable network/inetmenu" command (see FAQ) does not 
work, as inetmenu obviously doesn't exist on the system.

The normal way in Solaris to activate DHCP for an interface is, to 
create an empty file /etc/dhcp.<interface>, which in my case would be 
/etc/dhcp.e1000g0. Of course, I didn't create it, so this file doesn't 
exist in my /etc. My /etc/nodename, /etc/hosts, /etc/hostname.e1000g0, 
/etc/defaultrouter, /etc/resolv.conf and /etc/nsswitch.conf are as they 
should be for static IP. But the system ignores all: the interface 
remains under DHCP control...

So where is the setting to turn off the DHCP client? I didn't find a way 
to prevent "dhcpadm" to start :(

Any idea?

Thanks,
Frank
