I've built a few websites in the past, but didn't have time to maintain them...I let them expire. Hopefully I will have time to log on here from time to time and share some insights into my life and world. Hopefully someone will be interested....hehe....but if not...that's ok too.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/26811054-114584286155619926?l=vlearning.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Blackhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03155386255531561973noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26811054.post-1145841044076752292006-04-23T19:59:00.000-05:002006-04-24T10:40:48.293-05:00<span style="font-family:lucida grande;">I kept getting the error failed to plumb pcn0</span><br /><span style="font-family:lucida grande;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:lucida grande;">so...here's the fix. </span><br /><span style="font-family:lucida grande;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:lucida grande;">I found part of it on another website..and figured out the rest.</span><br /><span style="font-family:lucida grande;">feel free to respond if you have more info and/or corrections, or a better way of doing this.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:lucida grande;">--------------------for networking.--------------------</span><br /><span style="font-family:lucida grande;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:lucida grande;">edit the .VMX file in the virtual machine folder on the host OS and add the following line</span><br /><span style="font-family:lucida grande;">ethernet0.virtualDev = "e1000" </span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:lucida grande;">then startup Solaris<br />-----------------------------------------------</span><br /><span style="font-family:lucida grande;">then<br /></span><br /><span style="font-family:lucida grande;">Go to a console window and type the following<br /></span><br /><span style="font-family:lucida grande;">ifconfig e1000g0</span> <span style="font-family:lucida grande;">plumb</span><br /><span style="font-family:lucida grande;">ifconfig e1000g0 dhcp<br /></span><br /><span style="font-family:lucida grande;">(you only have to do the above once - it remembers this upon rebootI haven't yet figured out exactly WHERE this info is stored yet, but it is - somewhere)</span><br /><span style="font-family:lucida grande;">-----------------------------------------------</span><br /><span style="font-family:lucida grande;">then<br /></span><br /><span style="font-family:lucida grande;">touch etc/dhcp.e1000g0</span><br /><span style="font-family:lucida grande;">touch etc/hostname.e1000g0</span><br /><span style="font-family:lucida grande;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:lucida grande;">(I'm not sure the the touch thing is necessary, but I did it and my networking works)</span><br /><span style="font-family:lucida grande;">----------------------------------------------</span><br /><span style="font-family:lucida grande;">then<br /></span><br /><span style="font-family:lucida grande;">rename /etc/nsswitch.conf to nsswitch.old</span><br /><span style="font-family:lucida grande;">rename /etc/nsswitch.dns to nsswitch.conf<br />reboot (logout doesn't switch the nameserver settings, have to reboot)</span><br /><span style="font-family:lucida grande;">------------------------------------</span><br /><span style="font-family:lucida grande;">whala! networking and DNS now work.</span><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/26811054-114584104407675229?l=vlearning.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Blackhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03155386255531561973noreply@blogger.com0
