Boot gives error message "RPC: Timed out"

All,
I had to configure my solaris 2.7 machine for networkring.
I used the sys-unconfig command because I was not sure about which files I had to modify.
The sys-unconfig did not work and I ended up modifiing the files anyway.
However now when I reboot I get:
RPC: TImed out and the system hangs and goes into the config questions.
Can anyone tell me how to get rid of this hang and stop the config questions ( NIS+, NIS, DNS, NONE ) from comming up.
How can I get the rpc time out error to stop

Hi
Try booting cdrom into single user and mounting the root filesystem. Then
check the following files:
/etc/hosts -- should have your hostname and ip address in it
/etc/nsswitch.conf -- if you don't want DNS, NIS etc, make sure this looks like nsswitch.files
/etc/nodename -- this should have your host name in it
/etc/rc2.d
etc/rc3.d -- check that the start scripts for NIS, NIS+ are disabled from here
/etc/netmask -- check you have the correct netmask set in here
/etc/hostname.hme0 -- this should have just the hostname in it
Also look for a default router being correctly set ( if your using files )
Reboot again and see if it comes up OK, there maybe some other things that need fixing,
in which case you may have to boot cdrom again.
regards

    Trying to load ebay (uk and .com) I get a "connection timed out" message and "server is taking too long to respond" message I can load other sites including facebook gmail and my bank. The problem seems to be on my laptop as I can acces ebay without problems on another computer.

  • I get this message "request timed out" everytime i tried to play a video .

    I've been having this problem for serval months now and it's annoying at first i used to watch videos and movies normal , but now everytime i try to visit a website to watch a movie when i click play i get this message " request timed out " after two minutes , i have downloaded google chrome , and it worked fine only for serval mins and then when i try to play or watch movies it's still giving the same error , btw i'm connected to internet via my home wifi connection , and yeah i restarted the ipad and switched the router off and on again and nothing changed , what is wrong with my ipad , how could i solve this annoying issue !

    I've been having the same issues too, and thought it was just my outdated computer or account?!
    Every time I try to purchase a song, "session has timed out" shows up after I click "agree" to the terms!? I seem to be in the exact same scenario as 'SportsBarn' above:  Itunes support have replied repeatedly with the same "solutions" but nothing has helped or even been applicable.  I have an older laptop, 2005 Powerbook running OS X 10.4 Tiger so it's not compatible with the latest iTunes 10.5.2 which requires minimum OS X 10.5. I've been using the balance already in my iTunes account (from redeemed giftcards over the past few years) with no problem, until recently (my last successful purchase was October 2011). I wonder if it's the older OS or just a redemption glitch even with newer computers?

  • Losing Airport/ Get message "connection timed out" when try to re-connect

    This has happened several times over the past few days. First time, trying to re-connect, it didn't see my network name. Then re-entered name, selected/joined, password shows up, but connection times out. Tonight, it saw my name, password showed up, but wouldn't connect, not matter what, with message "connection timed out."
    Both times the only thing that worked was a re-start. Tonight, even after a re-start, got "connection timed out" message at first, but was able to get back on by clicking on the icon. I see the following logs.
    Error: airportd MIG failed = -6 ((null)) (port = 26123)
    Macintosh-3 Apple80211Agent[91]: Error joining .......: Connection timeout (-6 timeout connecting)
    Macintosh-3 airportd[673]: Error: Apple80211Associate() failed -6
    Until this happens, the connection is solid, usually with 54 mbs. I've googled around for these logs, but haven't seen anything conclusive. Any ideas? Thanks.

    Don't mean to add to the possible confusion here, but most newer routers (Apple included) allow their users to "hide" their network, so it's also very possible and likely in an apartment situation that you can pick up interference from a network that you or Air Radar cannot "see".
    So, trying to find the "right" channel becomes a bit more of guessing game.
    Understand that you need "g" for your devices. For the future though, you might watch the Air Radar screen for channels in the 36-48 and 149-161 range to see how much less activity is going on there.

  • Premiere Pro stops rendering and gives error message when encounters "RGB Color Corrector"

    Premiere Pro (and also Encore) stops rendering and gives error message when it encounters a clip containing the "RGB Color Corrector" in any clip.  It will process clips without RGBCC, but will stop when it gets to one with RGBCC activavted.  PP will render clips if other effects, such as "Fast Color Corrector", "Color Balance (HLS)", and "Three-Way Color Corrector" are selected. However, these do not have the capabilities that The other color correctors will not do what RGB color corrector does, so I need to have this working to finish a large product that is due to the client.  Please help me..... I am not using the Creative Cloud version, and can't find either a download for the new update from 2013, or a phone number to talk to anyone. 

    Using a Win7 computer with 2.8 quad core processor, 24 gig of ram, Nvidia Quadro 5000 video card.  Don't think I have any plugins.  I looked at one a while back for cleaning up grainy video, but I am not sure I paid for that.  Think I deleted it. 
    Incidentally, someone named Jim on another part of the forum mentioned that this problem has been fixed in the CC version of the program.  I am using the non-CC version because I am 68 years old and only do seminars and documentation video.  Don't need so many bells and whistles, and definitely don't need learning curves every few weeks.  CS6.0.3 works fine for me.  By the way, someone else said that maybe version 6.0.1 might work better and I should revert to that.  Not sure if it is the version i have on the disk upgrade to 5.5 that I purchased in December. 
    As it stands now, I have 7.5 hours of a seminar that is ready to go out the door.  If there is an upgrade I can get from Adobe, maybe you can tell me about it. If I have a setting incorrect in the video output format, maybe I can change that.  So far it just happens with clips in my video that have RGB color correction.

  • Digital Fax to Folder Setup gives error message unable to establish 2-way communication with device

    Digital Fax to Folder Setup gives error message unable to establish 2-way communication  with device. I can s end a Fax and I can print documents. I can also, now, scan to computer. I have changed the phone line twice, restarted the router, restarted the computer, and made sure the front panel was lit when setting up the Digital Fax folder. I am on a Homegroup network, with both wireles and ethernet computers.  When I view the network, it sees both computers (wireless laptop and enthernet desktop), the printer, scanner, and router (VerizonDrive). I recently had to reinstall Windows 7, where Digital Fax to Folder Setup previously worked, and now it doesn't.  The network shows up as Network 3. When I try to view the network map, I get the error message that Windows cannot create the network map. Responses from other devices on the network are delayed or there is an  incompatible router on the network.  What am I doing wrong?

    Hello @JiffyFingers and Good Afternoon
    From what you have described, and from the work you did on another thread, I believe you'd get better assistance talking to either Microsoft or your router manufacturer. With not being able to create the network map, that's something a bit more intricate than digital fax setup
    You can have a look at this Windows cannot create the network map. Responses from other devices on the network are delayed or th... Microsoft thread as well, and you may be able to figure it out from there.
    Hope that helps, have a great day!

  • C5550 printer gives error message "Turn off power, then on again" with all flashing lights

    This printer all of the sudden in constanty jamming up and gives error message "Turn off power, then on again", makes a lot of noise, and does it again.  Can't get any printing done!  I'm about to throw it out the window.  Any suggestions?

    Hey,
    I have been looking around trying to find the error that is associated with the blue blinking light above the memory card slots on the lower, right-hand side of the front of the printer. I have found that it is called the photo light; but, in regards to the flashing of it, I can't seem to find what that means.
    I recommend removing all memory cards from the slots, unplugging the power and leaving the printer unplugged for a while. Hopefully when you plug it all back in, everything will be ok. If not, let me know. In the meantime I'll keep looking and when I hear back from you I'll hopefully have some more information for you.
    Thanks for your detailed reply, have a great day, Look forward to hearing back from you.  
    I worked for HP.

  • MacBook Air will not boot. Error Message says "Your Computer restarted because of a problem."

    MacBook Air will not boot. Error Message says "Your Computer restarted because of a problem."

    If you can't start up and log in in the usual way, try in safe mode.
    During startup, you’ll see a progress bar, and then the login screen, which appears even if you normally log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Log in as an administrator to carry out these instructions. If you have only one account, you are the administrator.
    If you don't see any reports listed, but you know there was a panic, you may have chosen Diagnostic and Usage Messages from the log list. Choose DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION instead.
    Safe mode is slower than normal, and some things won’t work at all.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or earlier, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t start in safe mode.
    If you're able to log in, launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
    In the Console window, select
              DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION ▹ System Diagnostic Reports
    (not Diagnostic and Usage Messages) from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
              View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.
    There is a disclosure triangle to the left of the list item. If the triangle is pointing to the right, click it so that it points down. You'll see a list of reports. A panic report has a name that begins with "Kernel" and ends in ".panic". Select the most recent one. The contents of the report will appear on the right. Use copy and paste to post the entire contents—the text, not a screenshot.
    I know the report is long, maybe several hundred lines. Please post all of it anyway.
    If you don't see any reports listed, but you know there was a panic, you may have chosen Diagnostic and Usage Messages from the log list. Choose DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION instead.
    In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.)
    Please don’t post other kinds of diagnostic report.
