OK, here is the hogwash. I have already been round-and-round with the cloud admin guys with all of their requests for: netstat, lsof, ifconfig on-and-on. Anyway you slice it some random network config whether correct or not should not be shutting down a server upon boot. Especially, where there is no logging to speak of to shed light. And, this not an AIX but an Ubuntu 10.x Lucid server with all the major services running including NAMEd, SMTPd, HTTPd, SSHd, IMAPd, MySQLd and others with not a single hitch-in-the-git-along except for TC. JDK (sun-oracle 6.26 64) and TC 7 (64) are both fresh out-of-the-box install with no futzing about with any config.
And, BTW: this is on the server instance and not some laptop somewhere :-S ************************************************************************ david@dobbeltganger:~$ dig localhost ; <<>> DiG 9.7.0-P1 <<>> localhost ;; global options: +cmd ;; Got answer: ;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: NOERROR, id: 37269 ;; flags: qr aa rd ra; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 1, AUTHORITY: 1, ADDITIONAL: 1 ;; QUESTION SECTION: ;localhost.
