hello all,
at home i have sun ultra1 under solaris 9, and i use a smc Barricade Ethernet/USB ADSL Modem, plus ethernet hub for a lan.
As this equipment is dhcp server, i configure my sun as a dhcp client. I precise it works well for linux pc or other.
Under solaris, you have hostname "unknown" if you configure it as dhcp. There is a web page, http://www.rite-group.com/consulting/solaris_dhcp.html, with a script set_hostname to correct it. But this script make the assumption of /etc/nodename. But when using dhcp, solaris don't create this file. So i do a workaround (found on the web) i reconfigure my sun to have a static ip adress, but in the range of dhcp server. And it works.
But this is not satisfaying. Everyone has a clue?
TIA, i'll summarize
