Pls Help a newbie get connected

I am trying to connect my Solaris 10 partitions (dual boot with W2K) to the internet. My W2K boot can access the internet without any problems. I have been searching the internet for days and tried everything I could understand and still can't get online. I am extremely new to Solaris and Unix commands, so please be explicit in any help.
Here are the results of some "standard" answers to questions I have seen asked around this same problem.
ifconfig -a
inet 127.0.0.1 netmask ff000000
netstat -rn
Routing Table IPv4
Destination Gateway Flags Ref Use Interface
127.0.0.1 127.0.01 UH 30 104 lo0
grep host /etc/nsswitch.conf
"hosts:" and "services" in this file are used only if the
hosts: files dns
#cat /etc/resolv.conf
cat: cannot open /etc/resolv.conf
traceroute www.sun.com
traceroute: unknown host www.sun.com
Here is the information I do knw about my system but don't know how to set in Solaris
IP Address needs to be: 192.168.10.2 (W2K boot says this)
Info from my other W2K machine:
Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.10.1
DHCP Server . . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.10.1
DNS Servers . . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.10.1
I have tried everything I could find but still can't get anywhere but don't always understand the directions. Please help, I need to get this up and running asap.

i have tried moving hostname.rtls0 and the dhcp.rtls0 file doesn't exist but still got the error message telling me to delete /etc/dhcp.lo0~. I don't understand this error, i deleted this file days ago. i created it accidently when i thought lo0 was my network card.
So, i can't get inetmenu to run at all because of this phantom file...any ideas?
Also, I everytime I try and run sys-unconfig, it tells me "couldn't contact a dhcp server on the network interface rtls0. So I wind up choosing NO for dhcp.
I set my following info in sys-unconfig
hostname to monticello
ip address: 192.168.10.2 (what my W2K partition says)
netmask: 255.255.255.0
router ip: 192.168.10.1 (from nslookup)
name service: none (per your advice)
I also get the following to warning messages while the system is booting.
Warning: unexpected "token" 8139 in line 307 in /etc/driver_aliases
Warning: missing alias pci10ec in line 307 in /etc/driver_aliases
When the desktop loads i still have no network connection..
What am I doing wrong? I am very new to Solaris and Unix and have no clue at all...

    Here I am using Java Type IV for database

    So,there was no necessity of creating DNS.How your app communicates with db shouldn't matter for the end user. Still, you may want to use a functional network name also for the thin client driver connection string.
    So,is there any other way to solve this problem.What is the problem really? Do you not use dns for network naming? Maybe you have to manage the hosts file on every client then.

    Error 2000-2009 (2001, 2002, 2005, 2006, 2009, and so on)
    If you experience this issue on a Mac, disconnect third-party devices, hubs, spare cables, displays, reset the SMC, and then try to restore. If you are using a Windows computer, remove all USB devices and spare cables other than your keyboard, mouse, and the device, restart the computer, and try to restore. If that does not resolve the issue, try the USB issue-resolution steps and articles listed for Error 1604 above. If the issue persists, it may be related to conflicting security software. If the errors persist on another computer and known-good USB cable, the device may need service.
    The "device may need service" means a hardware problem. In that case make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • Another iMac Freezing Issue - pls help a newbie out

    I understand this problem is not uncommon - I've been trying to read the many threads I see on the issue. However, most posts outline problems, suggestions are made, but then reported to not work. Also, many threads are 2 years old.
    Could someone please suggest a step-by-step troubleshooting solution?
    Here are my pertinent facts:
    * Bought 20" iMac in July 07.
    * Processor: 2.16 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
    * Memory: 3GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM
    * Hubs installed the second memory stick a while ago (over a year and i don't remember this problem correlating with the new memory).
    * Video: ATI Radeon X1600
    * OS: Mac OS X 10.6.2
    * HD: 250GB capacity, 31GB available
    * I am using an external harddrive to back up my stuff (LaCie, connected by firewire)
    * Frequently used apps: Firefox, iPhoto, Photoshop Elements, Parallels (Quicken for PC), MS Office for Mac, etc.
    The problem starting occurring several months ago, while I was still running Tiger. Have since upgraded to Snow Leopard, with no improvement, in fact, things are getting worse.
    I get display distortion ("artifacts"?) - horizontal lines, blocks of the screen distort, usually clearing after dragging that part of the app off the screen of view and then back.
    Typically, if I start seeing display issues, a freeze up is imminent.
    Sometimes I get a sense it's coming soon - things run more slowly. Other times, it seems without provocation. I click on a window and nothing happens.
    Sometimes it's the wheel of death other times screen completely locks up with no spinning wheel. No option to force quit. Mouse is unresponsive. Keyboard appears to be, although I can toggle the Caps lock button on and off (light toggles). If I am streaming video, the screen will lock up, but the audio continues. If I wait (have gone to bed and come back in the am) it is still frozen.
    If I am streaming video (i.e Hulu on Firefox) or working in memory intensive applications (Windows, Parallels, Photoshop Elements, etc.) Problem is more frequent.
    I can go a day or so without problems, but if I am doing anything slightly involved, it happens much more frequently, as often as every 10 minutes or half hour or so.
    Steps I have taken:
    I always have to do a hard reboot. I have run disk utility multiple times, occasionally it finds and corrects stuff, but no fix seems to be permanent.
    I have seen suggestions of resetting PRAM as well as doing a clean re-install, but also seen that those fixes haven't endured.
    I don't have Apple Care and I'm not sure what steps I should be taking to fix this. Is there hope? I mostly see lots of problems reported, but not successful resolution.
    It's aggravating because I can't use the system for the stuff I bought it for (ex: digital scrapbooking) without worrying about losing my data. I switched to a Mac because I heard they ran so great and were "cool" to boot. While there have been many features of the Mac i enjoy, *if this kind of performance is typical after 2 yrs of use, I will not remain loyal to Apple.*
    If you have been successful in resolving the issue with Apple, what did you tell them and what did they do?
    I am competent system "user", but not as good when it gets into the weeds. Would appreciate any advice, feel free to spell it out as tho I were an idiot.
    I would appreciate a "try this, then try this" approach, especially if you have tried it and it has worked for you.
    Thanks for the help,
    Kendra

    OK, Mean, I mean Meanest, we have the same system (mine was purchased late 2006), and I can say we have identical symptoms. I agree with Paul_31 regarding disk space, but in addition, from all the posts on various Apple forums, it seems clear that the problem is due to the Radeon X1600 graphics card AND heat. These elegantly-designed Macs that we all love have a lot of stuff packed into a small package. Consequently they run hot, and over time the result is components bake and deteriorate. In our case, the weak link seems to be the Radeon card and since it’s not easily replaced, repair costs are nearly as much as the cost of a new iMac. A contributing factor is that over time dust will build up inside your Mac, and this serves as insulation, retarding heat transfer, and causing components to run hotter still.
    OK, so that’s the sad tale, but what can you do? Assuming your system is not too far gone due to the ravages of heat over time, there are things you can do to help prolong it’s life, and hopefully get it to behave itself better until the time it finally fails completely.
    In my case, the steps I’ve taken have resulted in a system that now “generally” runs for days at a time without locking up/crashing. A caveat: these are bandaids, not true fixes. I’m convinced the Radeon card will eventually fail and I’ll be faced with shopping for a new Mac – I’m only hoping the steps taken will give me a few more years of use before that happens. So, here’s my suggestions (basically they all have to do with getting your Mac to run cooler and being able to monitor temps so you know just how hot things are getting):
    1. First of all, if you don’t already have one, get one of the free programs available to monitor your Mac’s internal temperatures. One of the most popular ones is a widget, iStat Pro. As I type this iStat Pro is showing my temps are as follows:
    Hard Drive 92 deg. F
    CPU 85 F
    Ambient Air 69 F
    GPU Diode (graphics card) 92 F
    Hard Drive Bay 95 F
    Memory Controller 90 F
    Optical Drive 81 F
    If you have iStat Pro and see that your temps are about the same as these, I would say don’t bother to read further – you may have a different set of problems. If your temps are 10-20 F (or more) higher, keep reading.
    2. Try to clean out the internals of your Mac with compressed air. After 3+ years of use, I used an air compressor with an air gun attachment and blew through the vents at the back and bottom of my Mac with 60-80psi and actually saw a cloud of dust come out of my Mac. A more effective approach would entail cracking open the case of the Mac so you could really blow directly on the different boards/components. I haven’t done that, but I’m tempted to give it a try. Note: Some have suggested vacuuming and/or using a can of compressed air. I don’t think that approach is all that effective. You need a really strong flow of air to get that dust out of the inards.
    3. Download the free program SMC Fan Control (v 2.2.2). It will allow you to adjust the fan speeds higher for each of the 3 internal fans. The Mac has firmware that ramps up the speeds of these fans as internal temps rise, but the general consensus is the Mac firmware is “too little, too late”. With the standard Mac firmware, the fans will run at their default settings well beyond the point where the components are already way too hot. SMC Fan Control allows you to set the minimum fan speeds higher than the Mac default.
    Once you've done these steps, I'd suggest doing a SMC reset, then re-boot while keeping your fingers crossed.
    This is getting too long so I’ll stop for now. Good luck...

  • Help a newbie get going w/ cldc

    Hello,

I'm becoming increasingly frustrated since at every turn I have to download another package to get this to work . So far, I've gotten the wireless toolkit, the palm emulator, the midp spec, the cldc source, and now it is telling me i need to compile that w/ gnumake?!?!? This is really frustrating, is there anywhere to download the binaries and just get coding? I don't want to become an expert in GNU stuff, I just want to write some palm apps...Any help is greatly appreciated...

  • Pls Help a newbie - editing photos in PS8 - iPhoto

    Hi
    I've got a brand new mac - never had a mac before so bear with me. I am trying to learn this iPhoto etc. Just installed Photoshop Elements 8. But I am at a loss as how to use it all.
    I manage to set PSE as the editor from iPhoto. I learned that I need to start in iPhoto when I want to edit or open anything. Done. When I edit a photo in PSE and click 'save', iPhoto nicely updates the image in the library.
    But when I make copy (I do not want to touch the original file so make a new image file) it gets stored somewhere else on the computer and is not visible in iPhoto. Importing it did not work either (although I am still not clear WHERE it is saved).
    How on earth can I keep all my image files (which will consist of originals (jpg and tiffs) and edited photos (jpg and tiff) together? I was hoping iPhoto would be the ideal (I am a previous pc user so am used to just storing things in 'my documents' and 'my images').
    Please help!
    Thank you very much.

    what is the function of iphoto over standard folders?
    FIles in folders give you just that: files in folders.
    Photos in iPhoto (or Aperture) give you unlimited ways to categorise, organise and find any photo in your collection, plus multiple ways to share those photos.
    For instance I often use the following to illustrate ways in which you can organise with iPhoto:
    I use Events simply as big buckets of Photos: Spring 08, July - Nov 06 are typical Events in my Library. I use keywords and Smart Albums exensively. I title the pics broadly.
    I keyword on a
    Who
    What
    Where basis (The When is in the photos's Exif metadata). I also rate the pics on a 1 - 5 star basis.
    Using this system I can find pretty much find any pic in my 25k library in a couple of seconds.
    So, for example, I have a batch of pics titled 'Seattle 08' and a typical keywording might include: John, Anne, Landscape, mountain, trees, snow. With a rating included it's so very easy to find the best pics we took at Mount Rainier.
    File -> New Smart Album
    set it to 'All"
    title contains Seattle
    keyword is mountain
    keyword is snow
    rating is 5 stars
    Or, want a chronological album of John from birth to today?
    New Smart Album
    Keyword is John
    Set the View options to Sort By Date Ascending
    Want only the best pics?
    add Rating is greater than 4 stars
    The best thing about this system is that it's dynamic. If I add 50 more pics of John to the Library tomorrow, as I keyword and rate them they are added to the Smart Album.
    Keywording takes time to set up, there's no doubt about it. I use Keyword Manager as it's much more powerful than the inbuilt system, and adds the possibility of nested keywords. So, for instance, if I add John to a photo it also adds 'Family'. Now I can add many keywords to a pic quickly.
    In the end, organisation is about finding the pics. The point is to make locating that pic or batch of pics findable fast. This system works for me.
    (Try do that with files and folders!)
    On top of that: Pics in iPhoto or Aperture are available in every single Open... or Attach... window in the entire OS etc etc etc

  • Pls pls help- i cant get itunes on my comp

    my comp wont put itunes on all i get is 162: failed to complete installation, i have disabled norton anti virus and tried everything and im rubbish on comps. it loads up (itunes)i get an icon on the desktop but when i double click on it an agreemet flashes up and thats it. I have tried uninstalling it and trying again and downlaoding it from the net but nothing
    i really need help its driving me mad
    Thanks in advance

    Hang on...
    You can only authorise the songs you purchase from the iTunes Store to play on five computers.
    You can download and install iTunes (the iTunes programme) onto as many computers as you wish.
    Two different things.
    Assuming therefore, that your problem is that you have authorised five computers, but now no longer have some of them, you need to de-authorise all your computers and then re-authorise the computers you still have.
    To de-authorise your computers, go to your account in the iTunes Store and look for the Deauthorise All button.

    You can specify a policy file and grant the following pemission in it:
    grant {
    permission java.net.SocketPermission "*:1024-65535","accept, connect, listen, resolve";
    Specify this policy file using "-Djava.security.policy=your policy file".
    BTW, don't forget to run rmiregistry before you launch your own RMI application.
    Good luck!

    If connection pooling is possible with rollback facility??????Should be, sure. What problem do you have with it?
    I know very little about MySQL, but I understand it is somewhat "special". Do you have a version of MySQL that has transaction support? Check the MySQL docs: is there some configuration you need to do to enable transactions?

  • Pls help : How to get the client ip address in EJB

    Hi experts,
    I need to find the ip addr of the client which makes the remote call.
    I tried using
    java.rmi.server.RemoteServer.getClientHost()
    But it throws ServerNotActiveException .
    When I tried this in RMI it works fine perfectly.
    If i am right EJB is just similar to RME and it should work in it too..
    Can you please help me in finding out the ip address of the client which makes the ejb call.
    Thanks & Regards,

    Hi Mukunt,
    There is no portable way to do this in the Remote EJB programming model. The bean class
    is written in a way that is agnostic to those kind of plumbing-related details of the caller.

  • I am on vacation and I am unable to get internet connection using my Powerbook G4 (with built-in Airport). It is only showing a WPA Personal for the wireless security option and the resport password is being rejected. How can I get connected?

    I need some help trying to get connected from a remote location with my Powerbook. I am a graphic designer on vacation and need to keep in touch with my clients. Need help ASAP!

    Looks like you are working with a vintage product and the operating system is a little outdated, which makes it harder to troubleshoot. It's possible that it doesn't support WPA (depending on the Airport card built-in). Otherwise, if you can connect via ethernet, check for software updates. It even might be as simple as restarting the computer.
