We run a virtual Solaris 10 on Sun VirtualBox. The OS that we run Solaris 10 on is Windows Vista. The hardware is an 64-bit AMD CPU with 4 GB RAM, a laptop. First I want to say that I forgot to add an ethernet interface and IP to solaris. Will try this of course, had forgot to do it. Which exact commands that actually started DHCP that we used I am not sure of, but we used these commands in this order(sorry for the huge amount of commands, but I don't know which command that starts DHCP specifically): "dhcpconfig -D -r SUNWbinfiles -p /var/dhcp -l 86400" "dhcpconfig -N 172.27.200.0" "dhtadm -M -m Jimmy -e DNSServ=172.27.200.11" "dhtadm -M -m Jimmy -e BootSrvA=172.27.200.11" "dhtadm -M -m Jimmy -e Hostname=_NULL_VALUE_" "dhtadm -M -m Jimmy -e Router=172.27.200.1" "dhtadm -M -m Jimmy -e DNSdmain=je.dlab.ict.kth.se" ("Jimmy" is the name of the host and the macro here, don't know if the name of the macro matters?) "dhtadm -M -m Jimmy -e 'DNSserv=172.27.200.11'" 'for cli in 200 201 202 203 204 205 206 207 208 209; do pntadm -A 172.27.200$cli -c "Jumpstart Client" -f DYNAMIC -m Jimmy -y 172.27.200.0; done' "dhtadm -A -s SrootOpt -d "Vendor=SUNW.i86pc,1,ASCII,1,0" "dhtadm -A -s SrootIP4 -d "Vendor=SUNW.i86pc,2,IP,1,1" "dhtadm -A -s SrootNM -d "Vendor=SUNW.i86pc,3,ASCII,1,0" "dhtadm -A -s SrootPTH -d "Vendor=SUNW.i86pc,4,ASCII,1,0" "dhtadm -A -s SswapIP4 -d "Vendor=SUNW.i86pc,5,IP,1,0" "dhtadm -A -s SswapPTH -d "Vendor=SUNW.i86pc,6,ASCII,1,0" "dhtadm -A -s SbootFIL -d "Vendor=SUNW.i86pc,7,ASCII,1,0" "dhtadm -A -s Stz -d "Vendor=SUNW.i86pc,8,ASCII,1,0" "dhtadm -A -s SbootRS -d "Vendor=SUNW.i86pc,9,NUMBER,2,1" "dhtadm -A -s SinstIP4 -d "Vendor=SUNW.i86pc,10,IP,1,1" "dhtadm -A -s SinstNM -d "Vendor=SUNW.i86pc,11,ASCII,1,0" "dhtadm -A -s SinstPTH -d "Vendor=SUNW.i86pc,12,ASCII,1,0" "dhtadm -A -s SsysidCF -d "Vendor=SUNW.i86pc,13,ASCII,1,0" "dhtadm -A -s SjumpsCF -d "Vendor=SUNW.i86pc,14,ASCII,1,0" "dhtadm -A -s Sterm -d "Vendor=SUNW.i86pc,15,ASCII,1,0" "dhtadm -A -s SbootURI -d "Vendor=SUNW.i86pc,16,ASCII,1,0" "dhtadm -A -m sparc -d ':SrootPTH="/js/os/Solaris_10/Tools/Boot":'" "dhtadm -A -m sun4u -d ':Include=Solaris:Include=sparc:'" "dhtadm -A -m i86pc -d ':Include=Solaris:SrootPTH="/js/os/Solaris_10/Tools/Boot":SinstPTH="/js/os/Solaris_10/0106":SbootFIL="/platform/i86pc/kernel/amd64/unix":' "dhtadm -M -m SUNW.i86pc -d ':Include=i86pc:'" "dhtadm -M -m Solaris -d ':SrootIP4=172.27.200.11:SrootNM="Jimmy.je.dlab.ict.kth.se":SinstIP4=172.27.200.11:SinstNM="Jimmy.je.dlab.ict.kth.se":'". (DHCP config done here. At this point I saw that DHCP wasn't started, it ran in "maintenance mode", "restarted too many times" was the reason. NFS server had been started.) Also ran "./add_install_client -d SUNW.i86pc i86pc" after this although I am unsure of if the syntax is correct. Tried this command first with a different syntax. Would that matter or would it just mean that we "installed" more clients? I have read a lot of documentation, but not all. Will look up ifconfig's and dhcpagent's man pages, thanks. I try to run a DHCP server to make it possible to do a solaris jumpstart. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
