Hi all,
I'm a recent convert (and complete newbie) from linux, so please a) be gentle
and b) show forgiveness!
I've just installed OpenSolaris as a client on VMWare server and I'm not able
to get out to the net. OpenSolaris can see the physical host it's running on
and it looks like it was assigned an IP via DHCP as I want. It can even ping
the gateway, but that's as far as it goes. My details are ...
-bash-3.2$ /usr/sbin/ifconfig -a
lo0: flags=2001000849<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv4,VIRTUAL> mtu 8232
index 1
inet 127.0.0.1 netmask ff000000
pcn0: flags=201004843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST,DHCP,IPv4,CoS> mtu 1500
index 2
inet 192.168.1.45 netmask ffffffe0 broadcast 192.168.1.63
lo0: flags=2002000849<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv6,VIRTUAL> mtu 8252
index 1
inet6 ::1/128
-bash-3.2$ /usr/bin/netstat -nr
Routing Table: IPv4
Destination Gateway Flags Ref Use Interface
-------------------- -------------------- ----- ----- ---------- ---------
default 192.168.1.33 UG 1 0
192.168.1.32 192.168.1.45 U 1 3 pcn0
127.0.0.1 127.0.0.1 UH 1 77 lo0
Routing Table: IPv6
Destination/Mask Gateway Flags Ref Use If
--------------------------- --------------------------- ----- --- ------- -----
::1 ::1 UH 1 0 lo0
(I don't know why it should be using 'pcn0' - is that the eth0 equiv in
solarisland? - it just defaulted to that)
The IP address it should have (which I think it does) is 192.168.1.45 with a
mask of 255.255.255.224. The address of the physical server it's running on is
192.168.1.33. The address of my router out to the internet is 192.168.1.1
I can ping the router no problems, but web pages (and I presume everything
else) just can't/won't get out. I think the route should be ..
192.168.1.45 --> 192.168.1.33 -> 192.168.1.1
Can anyone see if there's anything wrong with the setup as I have it and if so
what I need to do to fix it please.
Many thanks,
Alex
P.S. Everything works fine on this same virtual network for other servers so I
don't think it's a vmware config issue.
