SunFire4800: Ping Problem
Solution: Fixing the related LAN port.

Subject: SunFire4800: Ping Problem
 
Dear SunManagers,
 
I got a connection problem between my server and its workstation.
Both machines are connected to the same hub as follow:
Servername's SC0 is connected
Servername's SC1 is not connected
Workstation is connected
 
Problem: my workstation can do a ping to SC0, but not to my server.
Any idea why?
I have tried to change loghost for domain from "empty value" to "IP Address
of ServerName", but still failed.
 
Thanks a lot for your kind help.
 
 
 
Hereafter are infos about both machines:
