Hi
It looks to me like utadm thinks it running on Linux rather than SunOS
what is the result of /bin/uname -s on SXDE?
from utadm
OS=`/bin/uname -s`
case "$OS" in
SunOS) # Define Solaris specific parameters
....
DHCPCONFIG="/var/dhcp/dhcptab"
....
Linux) # Define Linux specific parameters
....
DHCPCONFIG="/etc/dhcpd.conf"
....
*) # Unknown OS
Fatal "unknown OS name $OS"
esac
