Detection of nic card

Hi there I just installed solaris 9 on my hp vectra pc, I got it up and running but it doesnt detect the network card, I have a belkin network card, is there anyway I can get that card detected under solaris 9. If yes then how.
Samir

Belkin does not manufacture their own ethernet chipsets, they are probably
using chips from some other vendor. So you have to identify the manufacturer
of the chipset they are using on their NIC and try a generic driver for that chipset
(I found some hints on google that Belkin might use the Realtek 8139 chipset,
but you didn't mention the type of Belkin NIC you're using so this is just a wild
guess; if my guess is correct, there are NIC installation instructions:
http://solaris-x86.org/documents/tutorials/rtls.mhtml).
Try the following: run "prtconf -pv > /tmp/prtconf.out", and look at the output
file, searching for the string "Ethernet". You'll find something like the following:
Node 0x1b76f8
class-code: 00020000
device-id: 00001229
model: 'PCI: e11,b01e - Intel Pro100/B Fast Ethernet'
name: 'pcie11,b01e'
subsystem-id: 0000b01e
subsystem-vendor-id: 00000e11
vendor-id: 00008086
The interesting values are "vendor-id & device-id", and "subsystem-vendor-id
& subsystem-id". (In this case 0x8086/0x1229 and 0x0e11/0xb01e for in
intel NIC)
Type the vendor-id (or subsystem-vendor-id) into the form at :
http://www.yourvote.com/pci/
and look for a device matching your device-id (or subsystem-id). This
should help identify the chipset and hopefully you can find a solaris x86
driver for it. Here are some links for 3rd party solaris nic drivers:

Mac Mini Not Detecting Ethernet NIC

I have a weird one which I hope you can help me with. I have a Mac Mini SL server which operates as a DCHP and netboot server. Yesterday it stopped detecting its ethernet card which was resolved by a reinstall but when I started it today the problem had reappeared.

Is this the integrated NIC, or a USB widget?
Are you using a managed switch?
What do you mean by detecting its Ethernet card? No Ethernet card was found at boot-time? The Ethernet card was found at boot, and then lost or forgotten or disappeared as the system ran? The card was found at boot, then (which still present) disconnects or otherwise stops working?
What command(s) are you using to check this?
In general (and you've probably already confirmed this, but...), see if the connection to the switch is set up correctly, and see if the cable is connected, and swap cable and switch-port as a test...

Wireless NIC Cards to use with MiFi 2200

Hello All,
I've had some issues using the Linksys Wireless-G NIC cards for wireless data access on Windows computers.
Does anyone know if there are recommended wireless card brands that work best with the MiFi 2200? Thanks for your assistance.

There are two kinds of RFID tags: Active tags, which have a battery or other internal power source, and passive tags, which have no power source and work by reflecting the energy from an RFID scanner (basically). At the energy levels and distances used for WiFi location detection, passive tags will not return a detectable signal.
Take a look at http://www.aeroscout.com/ for more info on WiFi RFID tagging.

Single NIC card and RAC ???

Hello all,
i 'am tryin to setup a rac with CENTOS 4.4 and open filer for testing purposes
i am following the doc http://www.oracle.com/technology/pub/articles/hunter_rac10gr2_iscsi.html
I have three cpu's each with ONE n/w card. Will it be possible to install oracle clusterware ?
I tried installing oracle clusterware by creating an ifcfg-eth1 file under /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ . But it was not detected as a private interface.
Is there any way to proceed with a single NIC card.

You may be able to make the NIC the private interconect, and use the VIP as the public. Not sure if that will work ... it would be tricky, and not recommended due to the amount of traffic on the NIC.
Is there some reason you can't add some cheap 10/100 NIC for the public I/F - PCI, wireless, virtually anything will do. Cards go for $10-$15, assuming you have the space.

How to tell if nic card is working at 100mb or 10mb??

hello,
subject line says it all.
also, what would be best way to migrate to the open workgroup suite from
sbs6.5??
I'm running everything on one server. would like to add the blackberry
server to the new system. need to run citrix as well (only runs on
windows term server), this would be a seperate box.
would be using win2k3 server for citrix/term server on one box and
another box for running win2k3 with mssql 2005.
Thanks,
Oskar

I'm getting max of 104KB per second.
This is pretty slow, isn't it? I think the NIC card on this server is
due for an upgrade. I'm looking at the intel pro server nics.
Any other suggestions? I'm looking for a nic card that is on the HCL

DVD-Audio and "can not detect sound blaster card" with Audigy2 Va

I recently purchased an "Audigy2 Value" card from an eBay user, because I recently purchased some DVD-Audio discs. I downloaded the Audigy2 drivers from the website, and the Creative MediaSource player. 5. Surround sound worked fine for me, though sometimes the driver would reset to the default 2/2. sound and I would have to re-select 5. sound, which was annoying.
Then I was completely unable to get the MediaSource player to recognise my DVD-Audio discs, and the EAX functionality of the player would never work. The EAX logo never appeared in the player. When I tried installing the MediaSource player from an install disc, I got the message "can not detect sound blaster card". Then I discovered the world of EEPROM problems.
I followed advice from some other threads, including using ScanPCI to get information on the card, which yielded the following result.
When installed on my machine (Asus A7A266 motherboard) the ScanPCI reads:

On another machine (specs unknown, it's a "house pc") I got this (with 3 entries!):

(Just a note: above you can clearly see that it does not say I have an Audigy, it thinks it is a SBLi've. Is this normal? The card IS an Audigy 2, it says so on the card.)
So, I put the card back on my own PC, thinking this has fixed my EEPROM, but I get the same as before. Subsystem ID 0002h. And of course the install software will not detect the card.
I realise that I could go back to using the web drivers, but this still leaves me with MediaSource not recognising the card and not enabling DVD-Audio or EAX, which is why I bought the card in the first place!
I have heard that the VIA chipset is possibly to blame for the EEPROM problems on the Audigy cards, and certainly it seems like it is not permanent, since it gave different information on the other PC. So now I am seriously considering getting a new motherboard.
Do other motherboards cause this same problem? I don't want to buy another board and get the same trouble. All I want is to be able to install my MediaSource and have it recognise my card so I can listen to my DVD-Audio discs.
Cheers,
Russ.

Figured out my problem. Installing the drivers from the web to begin with was a bad idea. They just did not work properly with the card.
The "card not found" problem has gone as well, after installing it in another PC. I am also using the proper install disc now, as the other one I was using turned out to not be for the Audigy 2 value after all, but was an Audigy 2 install disc. That easily explains the "Card not found" error. The differing results from the ScanPCI program are still bizarre, though.
Thanks to all of the people on the forum who posted information in other threads to help me deal with this issue. For now I am sticking with the original drivers from the disc and I am not upgrading.

How to set up set which NIC card to use for multicast?..

 I just downloaded Rolling Patch 1 for WLS6.0SP2.
 While reading the README file it says
 " ISSUE 42518: Provided a way to set which NIC card to use for multicast traffic
 Can anyone tell me how to set this?. on my WebApplication server it has two NIC
 cards and I want to use the NICcard which is being used to talk to internal network
 for multicast messages.
 One more thing,
 Can anyone one tell how to search for bugs (ISSUES) in weblogic. I am looking
 place where I enter ISSUE number and should get the detailed description of bug/issue
 etc..
 Thanks for helping,
 Nilesh


 Thanks Kumar, I'll try this.
 Does this -Dweblogic.interfaceAddress used only for multicast. Or this is also
 used to talk to AdminServer?.
 The other problem I am facing is when I restart the AdminServer in recovery mode
 it's not finding my WebApp servers, because my webapp servers are on public network
 and my admin (management) server is on private network.
 please look at http://newsgroups.bea.com/cgi-bin/dnewsweb?cmd=article&group=weblogic.developer.interest.management&item=1217&utag=

I recently updated the itunes software and now my iphone wont detect the sim card! what do i do?

I recently got my iphone unlocked because i wanted to change my carrier. today when i connected my iphone to the itunes it started updating the software! all my previous data was erased and now it wont detect the sim card! what do i do?

Updating iTunes has nothing to do with an iDevice going into recovery mode.
If the device is in recovery mode, restore it via iTunes on a computer.

Vista can not detect my graphic card ATI HD2600 on Satellite A210-128

Hallo,
Can someone help me with this issue?
I have a Toshiba Satellite A210-128 laptop with vista separately on DVD, but it seems that the dvd is damaged and I can not use it any more.
I have installed on my laptop a brand new Vista from the original DVD that Im using it on my desktop, but the problem is that vista can not detect my graphic card hd2600.
So Im stuck...... I tried to install the ati driver from the Toshiba update site but I get a error because ccc can not detect a graphic card ?????/
What to do????
It is something special with the DVD that i have from Toshiba ?????
Thank you very much.

The whole issue is really mysterious. In my opinion there are two options;
Either your have used and tried to install a wrong graphic driver or there is something wrong with your GPU chip.
Are you 100% that you tired an right graphic driver from the Toshiba European driver page?
If yes, then I recommend contacting the ASP in your country because this could be really an hardware issue.
Furthermore I found you second posting in other thread

and I think more and more that this must be an graphic card issue.

2 NIC Cards in PowerMac G3 Server running OS X Server 10.3?

Hello all,
I have installed a D-Link PCI Network Adapter, Model #DFE-530TX+, into one of my G3 Servers (Blue and White - Yosemitie) running OS X Server 10.3.
I booted and then installed the driver provided on the vendors CD and then rebooted. I get an error at desktop saying that the driver cannot be used because it was installed incorrectly, although I followed D-Links instructions to the T.
I visited D-Links website and there is a different driver available for Mac OS 10.2x. When I install this one, same error.
Apple System Profiler does not show that there is a card installed in the respective PCI slot. I have tried both remaining slots.
Is there something obvious that I'm missing concerning installation of a secondary Ethernet connection in this machine? I have been told that OS X Server 10.3 doesn't need the driver installed at all, it should just pick it up.
Thanks for any help you can provide.
PowerMac G3 Server-Blue-and-White

A tech friend of mine suggested that I run the MacOSXServerEssentials.pkg located on Disc #2 of the OS X Server installation discs. Since the D-Link card functioned under the client version of OS X 10.3.9, if I ran the OS X Server Essentials package and upgraded a client to a server, it should retain the PCI card information. I tried to run the package and was told that I needed to have a minimum of OS X 10.3.9 client installed. I had not installed the Combo Update, therefore, I only had OS X 10.3.2 client installed. Once updated to 10.3.9 client, I ran the OSXServerEssentials package. Once complete it did not ask for a restart and was still booted into the OS X 10.3.9 client version. I did restart and am glad to report that I am now running OS X Server 10.3.9 with two NIC cards on a PowerMac Blue-and-White G3.
Thanks again for your suggestions,

How to add a second nic card to non global zone

hi every one
i have a issue like
my non global zone has hme0 as the nic card
i want to add a secondary nic card like pcn0 to the non global zone . how can i add to the nonglobal zone so that both the nic cards should exist in the nonglobal zone
please tell me the command and procedure for that
thanks in advance ....

If your non-global zone is a shared IP zone, then you can add like
zonecfg -z <zonename>
add net
set physical=pnc0
set address=<IP Address>
end
verify
commit
exit
If your non-global zone is an exclusive IP zone, then remember that the interface pnc0 you are adding will be in control of non-global zone exclusively.
Steps to add it are same as above.

Having 2 NIC Cards

I have installed a second network card in my power G4 and I need to configure this card with a static IP; however, there is no where to do this (or at least I can not find it). I have the on board network card configured and working. Any suggestions?
I know if I was running os 10 then I could use UNIX commands to do this however I can not afford to do this at the present time.
Thanks
Power g4 Mac OS 9.2.x

Hi Manikandan,
You can use two network cards but if you installed B1 when this two network cards has been configured to enable, the B1 application run will have slow performance. So, you must disable one of network cards, restart the B1 server and run the B1 again.
If you need the NIC card that is already disable, you can enable again. It won't give slow performance.
my answer is quoted from SAP note 1135705:
SAP Business One takes too long to log on users
Symptom
SAP Business One client (not installed on the same machine as the
license service) might take several minutes to log you on successfully due to a delay in establishing a connection with the license server.
After logon, SAP Business One functions as expected.
This is due to the fact that the server or PC on which the license server is installed has more than one network card, or there is a dial-up & VPN interface-configured server.
Note: This can happen when you install the license service on a machine with more than one network card ALREADY installed.
Installing additional network cards on a single network card machine with a license service already installed might not produce this issue.
Other terms
SAP Business One, slow, login, log-in, delay, license, server, NIC, VPN, connection.
Reason and Prerequisites
Application error.
Solution
This issue is a candidate to be resolved in a future release.
Until then, you can use one of the following workarounds:
Disable additional network cards in the Network Connections. Also make sure there is no dialup interface or VPN interface set up, and restart the server. Note that you can re-enable the additional network card after the restart. This will resolve the issue until the next restart.
Install the license server on a machine with a single network card.
Disable all network cards, restart the license server and then enable the network cards again.

3-Com NIC Card Networking Problems on Solaris 10 (x86)

Hi,
I have Solaris 10 OS installed on a PC. I am having trouble getting my machine to ping other machines on the same network. I have executed the following commands:
#ifconfig elxl0 plumb
#ifconfig elxl0 192.168.100.181 netmask 255.255.255.0 up
When I try to ping another machine on the same lan, I don't get a response. I have even did a the sysconfig command and reconfigured my networking and it still does not work. I have tried different network cable as well. I have looked in the master file. I see the driver for my NIC, so I know it is supported by Solaris 10. Can anyone help me?

Here is some more info on my problem and a couple of things I have tried to do to resolve the issue :
I executed the command "prtconf-pv". I found information on my NIC Card, which is a 3-Com 3C905B-TX Etherlink XL 10/100. I found my vendor id - 10b7 and my device id - 9055. I then checked "driver_aliases" file to see if I could find an entry in this file and I did see my vendor id and device id. I would then conclude that Solaris knows my PCI vendor/device-id combination and maps them to elxl driver.
I have also tried a different cable that i know works and still nothing.
I also found from research in Sol. 10 that there is file in addition to hosts, hostname.elxl0, defaultrouter that has to be modifed. That file is ipnodes. I checked the file, and my ip address / hostname is noted in the file. Is it possible I have a bad NIC? I thought about swapping it out for another one that I know works, but it is an onboard NIC. Well, if anyone has and additional info, I would greatly appreciate it.

Z1 - can't detect the SD card

Hello,
I just received a Z1 (6903) with the latest Android OS update (5.0.2) Update 14.5.A.0.270 and It doesn't detect any SD card when I insert them.
I tried 3 different card - 2GB, 8GB and 16GB (micro SD and micro SDHC) - Fat32 and even exFat format but the phone can't detect any of them in Settings - Storage or with a File browser.
In other phones or PC they all work fine, just this phone has the problem.
Any ideas would be highly appreciated.
Thanks!

IP Failover between nic cards, not servers

This maybe a very simple question, I just haven't found the answer to it...
Our Xserve's are running on a Cisco switch and a switch port for the primary NIC card of one AFP server recently failed.
While the server had both cards connected to the switch and the second NIC card was live, the users lost connectivity to the internal server address (internal DNS) as is was pointing only to the primary IP address of that server.
This makes sense as there was no mechanism to tell the server to start using the secondary IP address.
We are now planning to connect all secondary NIC's to a second switch for both the LAN and the DMZ (VLANs) for better redundancy.
The DMZ uses IP addresses only due to port forwarding.
My question is now what is the best way to continue services on a secondary NIC if the first NIC fails.
Add a new DNS entry for the LAN? If so, how? Just enter the secondary NIC IP with the same server name?
Use FAILOVERBCASTIPS for the DMZ?
IP Failover works great between machines, but can the server send heartbeat messages to itself (example: FAILOVERBCASTIPS="NIC1-IP NIC2-IP")?
Is there any way to maintain the mount status of AFP volumes during the switch of IP's (since it's still the same machine)?
Thanks in advance for your help!
Xserve G5 Mac OS X (10.4.3)

Since you're using Cisco switches and are already familiar with VLANs, your simplest solution would be to use link aggregation to create a trunk between the Mac and the switch using both the NICs, then configure VLANs so that both subnets use the trunk interface rather than the physical interfaces.
That way traffic for either IP address can traverse either NIC, and you get automatic failover (thanks to link aggregation) should either NIC fail.
Note that this will only work if you're connecting to the same switch. If you have 'internal' and 'external' switches this won't work without some re-architecting of the network topology.
