Hi Everyone, I have installed open solaris 10 on one of the x86 machines available but inspite of configuring the IP settings i am unable to access the machine through the network. Can anyone please help me wih the settings required to access the machine across the network.Its really Urg..Any help is really appreciated.. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org ___ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org

Suraj Sankar wrote: I have installed Open Solaris 10 and i configured the machine using sys-unconfig. urg=Urgent. 1. "OpenSolaris" and "Solaris 10" are two different versions with some differences in how the networking works. Which did you install? I'm guessing "Solaris 10" based on the reference to sys-unconfig, unless you used the soon-to-be-discontinued SXCE. 2. What do the commands "ifconfig -a" and "netstat -rn" say? Make sure the netstat command lists at least one entry for "default" and that the ifconfig command lists at least one entry other than "lo0" and that this other entry needs to say "UP" and have a valid IP address ("inet 1.2.3.4"). 3. If ifconfig does not give a valid interface, what hardware and network interface are you using? Is this wired or wireless? 4. What network options did you choose after sys-unconfig? Fixed IP or DHCP? DNS for name lookup? Etc.? 5. If you selected DNS, do you have valid nameservers in /etc/resolv.conf? At least on Solaris 10, this file will be created even with DHCP (OpenSolaris uses NWAM which is different). What happens if you type "ping 1.2.3.4" where 1.2.3.4 is the IP address of your DNS server. 6. In general, when debugging, start with "ping ", and with another IP address on your local network (such as the defaultrouter gateway). I.e. not hostnames. You need to get this working before name lookup. 7. While trying the "ping" command above, run "snoop" as root in another terminal. Take note on whether this shows anything incoming at all. Hugh. PS: you would probably have gotten a better reply to your first question by providing more detail of your system and what you tried. ___ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org

Re: [osol-discuss] Unable to access the open solaris across the network..Urg!!!
just say yes or no to following questions to enable others to give solutions. Have you made the network configuration manual? Is your network configuration based on static ip or dhcp? For manual n/w config and static ip, have you added the ip addr, subnetmask and gateway to the network conn? Have you selected this network config as the default gateway device? Have you added dns server addresses such as OPENDNS ip addresses (208.67.222.222 and 208.67.220.220) in the DNS tab? Moreover, in my system i did all this. But, yet i am unable to connect to my internet. I think the default gateway device is not retaining what is given/selected. Because after saving and closing all these settings. Again i opened my network settings, it is showing default gateway device option as empty/blank option. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org ___ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org

looks like we have to say that "very fundamental/basic static ip configuration is not working in open solaris 2009.06".

It was announced today that NWAM v 1.0 will be available as a separate download. NWAM v1.0 has all the capability you require. It will be available in about 1 - 2 days to the general public. http://opensolaris.org/os/project/nwam/Phase1EA/ Paul ___ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org

Why is it urgent? You installed something without preparations and reading something about OpenSolaris?

Any relevant authorized person > around here, > please confirm this. You mentioned Virtual Box window in another thread which makes me think you are actually running this in there too and that you may also have a problem with that. What does your networking topology look like? PS: please use paragraphs and proper sentences when writing. Also use uppercase and lower case when the punctuation rules state so. Your questions would be a lot easier to read. ___ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org

that is all the info that is there and I provided it all.

Weren't the following statements true: * You have virtualbox configured * You have many servers * An MS Windows * An Ubuntu * An Opensolaris So there has to be something that connects them all network wise. If any of these are virtual machines, something has to connect them to the real physical server. ___ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
Re: [osol-discuss] Unable to access the open solaris across the network..Urg!!!
os means open solaris. os is used on virtual box(vb). But, you missed one thread in help forum(undetected ntfs partitions ). I found os on vb very slow. So, i uninstalled os and vb. I made all my partitions primary using some win app software. I installed os on one of the partitions. So, there is no virtual box now. I said abt ubuntu and os in the view of moving to these operating systmes from windows. I thought sole dependency on windows is bad. So, I want to use ubuntu and os both to remove the dependency on any single operating sys. Regarding servers, as I am java developer, I use visual svn server for src repository and tomcat/weblogic(can be any java based server in future) for my dev work. I want to use ubuntu as primary desktop and secondary server and open solaris as primary server and secondary desktop. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org ___ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
