Doing ifconfig skge0 dhcp does not automatically make dns magically work. Did you try pinging an *ip* address instead of a domain name after you did the "ifconfig skge0 dhcp" If you created those files I mentioned earlier, and now reboot your system, you should be able to login and do something like "ping www.google.com" and get a response about it being "alive." The above indicates to me that you indeed now have a working ethernet configuration. What is the output of "ifconfig -a" after you do a "ifconfig skge0 dhcp"? As I mentioned before, I have the exact same Ethernet adapter in my system and it works perfectly under Solaris 10 using the driver you are using. -Shawn This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ opensolaris-help mailing list [email protected]
