Ralf, I have recently attempted to configure a dedicated interconnect interface using Ubuntu with no luck. After labouriously tracking back through the utadm & utfwadm scripts, I have found that the issue relates to how the scripts setup the /etc/opt/SUNWut/net/dhcp directory files.
These files are not present as a result of not being able to find extra files and the best solution is to provide an "ubuntu" patch instead of the "debian" patch that I have mentioned for use. In short, the utadm script (amongst others) needs serious re-working to properly establish a working SRSS setup. Given the complexity of the SRSS setup scripts, the time needed to "ubunturise" them will be wasted as I feel that a new SRSS version would be released by then. Perhaps *SUN* could look at officially supporting Ubuntu in the next release -> ask me for plenty of reasons why.. :) Although the dedicated interconnect appears to be a dead end, configuring SRSS over a LAN interconnect does work, to the best of my knowledge. I have performed numerous installations using LAN interconnects and have received a plethora of positive feedback from other people performing LAN interconnect installs. Try Ubuntu again from scratch and follow the instructions in the wiki - http://wiki.edubuntu.org/UbuntuOnSunRay (it looks better there). IMO, Ubuntu is the best choice for a desktop operating system. -- Regards, Naaman Campbell Graduate IT Officer Teys Bros https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuOnSunRay https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CorporateUbuntu
