Re: SunHELP digest, Vol 1 #455 - 14 msgs

The trick isn't the 2.25 nor the 2.22, it's the ROSS Prom.
I've actually seen SS10's full the the gills with 32meg SIMMs,
but the tech's I was talking to said they've only made it
work by using ROSS Prom's.  That's the magic trick.

sorry, I don't know where to get one from...I'd have gotten
one myself if I did...)

Are the Ross Prom's different from the official Sun ones?  None of the
documentation that I've seen or read says anything about this.  In fact,
most of it implies the opposite...

IPv4 tunneling with Solaris 8?

I'm pretty new to Solaris so excuse me. At home I have linux running on
a few systems, these are connected back to work via a wireless network
link. My systems at home have
'works' backbone addresses and I use IPv4 in IPv4 tunnels to link them
back to the
backbone at work. At work I use proxy arp on a host to answer arp
requests for my home machines.
I want to connect a Solaris 8 box at home in a similar way. I've had a
look at the
ifconfig man page at could not make much sense of the small section and
example showing IPv4 tunnels.
Can anybody help, perhaps an example config please?

Thanks
Mike

yp (NIS ver. 2) on Solaris 2.4 and 2.5

Lo, all,

I have two Sparcs - an IPX and a 10, and I need to get one working as a
NIS (yp) server for my network.  According to the man pages for both of
these machines (Solaris 2.4 and 2.5), these distributions do NOT have
the server binaries/libraries installed.  Is there any way I can obtain
NIS server without upgrading/downgrading my machines? (if so, from
where?)

Thanx,

Jeff

Solaris on Intel and Linksys Router

Has anyone had any experience using the LinkSys Router with a Solaris Intel
box. The router using DHCP correctly assigns the Solaris box an IP address.
I can ping the router and other PC's on the network. But I am unable to
connect pass the router.

Appreciate any pointers. Linksys indicates this router should work with any
system supporting the TCP/IP protocol, but they do not support it on
anything other than Mac's and win95/98/NT.

The router is an EtherFast Cable/DSL router by LinkSys model number BEFSR41

Thanks,

Paul

SPARCstation LX lockup

Lo, all, (me again),

	I've got a SPARCstation LX that my roommate borrowed, and while playing
and picking at it, he claims he accidentally set one of the boot
param's, specifically the disk boot search order from "01234" to a
single number..."3" or something - the point is that whatever number he
selected is *NOT* where the disk is.  The machine's symptoms are these:

	- when powered on, the machine beeps, the green light flicks on
	- the hard disk audibly winds up (as usual)
	--> nothing is output to the monitor....nothing ever comes up.

Now, I'm not sure if the problem is as simple as the boot search order
being messed up (I would have thought that the basic BIOS info would
have been displayed), but I have heard that there is a combination of
keystrokes that can be pressed to revert the settings of the machine to
"factory default".  Does anyone know what this combination is?

Thanks much,

Jeff

Solaris on Intel and Linksys Router

works fine for me, check and make sure a default route is being set by the dhcp
server.  I don't use dhcp - I see no need for it on my network which consists of 9
machines.
