Hello, at the end another device was using the target 0 of the first
controllr, this machine is connected to a special medical device.
A lot of you offer some help, but moving the disk to the c0t1 slot and
change the entries in /etc/vfstab worked like a charm.
Thanks to all who reply ! you know who you are.

Dear sirs,
Thanks for the help extended for my previous quiery regarding slow telnet
connectivity.
Server=sun solaris 7 sparc 64 bit,
has 3 NFS mounts from 2 servers.
NO DNS OR NIS is configured on this server.One web application is running on
this server.
When i telnet  immediately  get the login prompt and the passwd promt after
i enter my user name. The server is taking 2-3 minutes to authenticate my
passwd and then i get my $ prompt.
(etc/nssswith.conf file is perfect).
Please suggest me what can be done so that i can get the connection fast.
Thanks in advance

Subject: Solaris 9 Routing problem
To: <sunmanagers@sunmanagers.org>
Message-ID: <00fc01c379e6$2d73ab20$9384fc3e@silver>

I've got a routing problem
Network is as follows:
192.168.0.2 (Windows XP Pro PC "silver", default gateway 192.168.0.1)
   |
 100Mb switch
   |
192.168.0.1 (hme0 100Mb interface on Sparc5 "blue")
   |
10.0.0.1 (le0 on blue)
   |
10.0.0.138 (adsl router "adsl")
Sparc 5 is running Solaris9 08/03
Machine is configured as a router (it says so at startup)
and has ip_forwaring enabled on both interfaces (checked with netstat
-s)
Relevant outputs:

Pinging stuff from the Sun:
# ping 192.168.0.2
192.168.0.2 is alive
# ping 10.0.0.138
10.0.0.138 is alive
The problem is, from the Windows box, 192.168.0.2, I am unable to
ping the router 10.0.0.138. I am able to ping both interfaces on the
Sun, however. Doing a traceroute from 192.168.0.2 to 10.0.0.138 hangs
after 192.168.0.1
Running Ethereal on le0 while pinging 10.0.0.138 from the Windows box, I
can see the ADSL router doing an arp request for 192.168.0.2 and not
getting any answer.
Tried adding the MAC address for the Windows box onto the ADSL router
but it didn't make any difference.
Theories:
1. Is it something to do with the MAC addresses on the Sun network
interfaces being the same. Don't think its this as have tried changing
one of them, didn't make any difference
2. Does the Sun need to do the arp proxy reply for the Windows box?
3. Although the Sparc should be passing the traffic in both directions,
the evidence seems to say its not.
Any ideas?
