I dont know alot about this but what how is your ethernet device configured on your Sparc? Maybe post your netstat output? I have ed0 setup as: bash# ifconfig ed0 ed0: flags=8863 mtu 1500 inet 192.168.0.2 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.0.255 ether 00:c0:f0:0b:8f:9b And the sun as: apocalypse# ifconfig le0 le0: flags=63 inet 192.168.0.3 netmask ffffff00 broadcast 192.168.0.0 ether 8:0:20:6:99:e9 Broadcasts are different, but doesnt seem to make a diff. Anyway as a sysadmin you must know more about this than I. Plus I would imagine your runnning Solaris, which is alot different than the SunOS v4.1 that I run and is partially broken. (a few libs missing...have not re-installed the OS since I got these machines.) Acuutally suprised that this sun even runs as it is...try to run vi: apocalypse# vi ld.so: libc.so.1: not found Not good, but the machine runs...go figure. Anyway from my limited Unix knowledge, a few books and some FAQ's I was able to add this sun to my network and make things go....ummm...also I diddled with my hosts and networks file. What do they say? Anyway dont know if this helped, probably not so I'll just stop here and try not to make it worse. :) kwoody@citytel.net
