Network install target says RARP timeout, server says reply sent

I had an existing Solaris jumpstart install server that I initially tried setting up for DHCP, and then after much failure tried resetting it to used fixed IP on a different subnet.
I've done add_install_client (without the -d dhcp option) and made sure the correct entries were in /etc/ethers and /etc/hosts
When I do boot net - install from the target machine, I get:
ok boot net - install
Boot device: /pci@1f,0/pci@1,1/network@c,1 File and args: - install
Timeout waiting for ARP/RARP packet
Timeout waiting for ARP/RARP packet
I have /usr/sbin/in.rarpd -d -a & running in a window and it shows me:

So according to the server feedback, it looks like the RARP lookup is working, but the client isn't getting the response.
Any thoughts?

Timeout waiting for ARP/RARP packetIf you leave this running for a while, do you continually get more lines, or does it stop at a small number (like 5 or so)?

Do any more request/reply pairs come through on the network trace?
So according to the server feedback, it looks like the RARP lookup is working, but the client isn't getting the response.If you get unlimited RARP request lines on the client, I'd agree. If they stop, then perhaps the system is hanging after the reply.
Can you do a 'test-net' on the client OBP and see that it can view network traffic? Has the machine been booted with some OS to verify the interface is functional for receiving traffic?

    I can't tell exactly what's wrong, since you attached only
    snoop log.
    But since you're using DHCP, I guess you are trying to
    do PXE boot to install. When you use PXE boot, you need
    to configure some vendor options (like SrootIP4, SrootNM
    etc) and also create macros with dhcpmgr.
    there is documentation at
    http:docs.sun.com
    so check the documentation to see what is missing.
    If you've already done these, check NFS configuration
    if all directory are correctly shared.

    Am not able to use facebook on my Iphone 4, softwareversion:iOS7.1, also tried to access through safari and chrome that i have installed it gives an error message saying: "safari could not open the page because server stopped responding", i tried network reset, reset the whole device, rebooting , changing airplane mode rebooting nothing fix the issue, but i can access other sites and google , am using Vodafone as my carrier with 2g network, when at home able to access facebook.com through wifi in safari requesting assistance thank you

    If you can access Facebook while on Wifi at home, but you are unable to access it while away running on your carrier's 2G network, I could phone your carrier.  You have already completed the Cellular Data troubleshooting for the iPhone, so any limitations keeping your from connecting to Facebook over cellular will have to be answered by your carrier.

  • What's wrong with the activation server? i just bought my ipad wifi celllular... and have a 3g cellular network connection... when i press the bottom to activate my ipad it says the activation server cannot be reached. what to do then?

    Hey aries35,
    I found the following that goes over troubleshooting the same issue for the iPhone. I know you have an iPad, but the steps should still apply:
    Perform the following steps:
    Restart the iPhone.
    Try another means of reaching the activation server and attempt to activate.
    Try connecting to a known-good Wi-Fi network if you're unable to activate using a cellular data connection.
    Try connecting to iTunes if you're unable to activate using Wi-Fi.
    Restore the iPhone.
    If you receive an alert message when you attempt to activate your iPhone, try to place the iPhone in recovery mode and perform a restore. If you're still unable to complete the setup assistant due to an activation error, contact Apple for assistance.

    That message usually indicates that the phone was either hacked/modified or jailbroken?
    Was this phone ever locked to a different phone carrier?

  • I installed the new google maps app and I am unable to make it work because it says, cannot reach server. I have a iphone 4 with 6.0.1 up to date. Please advise where I can locate to chech if my location is turned on.

    I installed the new google maps app and I am unable to make it work because it says, cannot reach server. I have a iphone 4 with 6.0.1 up to date. Please advise where I can locate to check if my location is turned on.

    i found a solution for this issue when google maps shows you an empty map error message cannot reach server. Click on  the icon next to search and you are supposed to be presented with your profile, if not u will have an empty space. click on that space, then the "gear " Icon and logout.
    restart your iphone then strat google maps again and log back in.
    apparently this is happening when you change your google acount password or enble or disable 2 step verification.

    Hi Peter,
    Thank you for the note - I have seen similar replies on other posting errors and I see how that could make sense. The thing is, my iPhone is not jailbroken - it is from an authorized distributor. However, when I told them about the "no service" problem on the sim, they were unable to assist. Then my phone messaged that an itunes restore was required - so I did that, several times, to the error message now noted on my post. I wonder if there is some other way to over-write this message? Thanks very much.

  • My IPAD won't accept my wi-fi password. I have tried resetting all settings and network settings but still won't accept it. Can't download to new version of IOS either, says software update server could not be contacted.

    my IPAD won't accept my wi-fi password. I have tried resetting all settings and network settings but still won't accept it. Can't download to new version of IOS either, says software update server could not be contacted.

    Yes I have put in the correct password, its all numbers so can't get it wrong really.
    It has connected before as has my iPod and that won't connect either. I have checked that they aren't on the blocked list of the wi fi. Managed to download the new version of iOS and that hasn't made a difference.
    I have the wi fi plugged directly into the computer rather than the booster hub as the computer won't connect to it when its in the hub. I did get the iPad to connect to the internet when it twas in the hub but once I upgraded the iOS it won't accept the wifi password in the hub either.

  • When I am abroad (living in Norway) the phone only temporarily  connects to a network. Most of the time is says "no service" in top left corner...I have tried to turn it on/off...with and without sim installed...roaming makes no diff. Can anyone help me?

    When I am abroad (living in Norway) the phone only temporarily (and seldom) connects to a network. Most of the time is says "no service" in top left corner...From advice I have tried to turn it on/off...with and without sim installed...roaming makes no diff. Can anyone help me?

    You're welcome.
    If she has full reception and connection with the same cell phone carrier where you don't - with you both using a SIM card provided by the same carrier while in Norway with an unlocked iPhone, then make an appointment at an Apple Store if there is one nearby to have a diagnostic test run on your iPhone.
    In the interim, I would contact this cell phone carrier in Norway to ensure your iPhone is provisioned properly. They can run a reset for your account that will require powering your iPhone off, so call them with your wife's iPhone for this.

    Hi,
    Please check if you have disabled the autodisconnect feature of the Server service. On Windows servers it can be configured through the Autodisconnect registry key.
    \HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanmanServer\Parameters\
    CIFS and SMB Timeouts in Windows
    http://blogs.msdn.com/b/openspecification/archive/2013/03/19/cifs-and-smb-timeouts-in-windows.aspx
    Based on the research, as the open shared folder is in a SMB session, the default timeout for SMB session is 15 minutes. If the SMB session is inactive for 15 minutes the server will send a TCP reset to close the SMB connection. Until the
    Autodisconnect timer is reached, the server will send an NBT keep-alive packet every two minutes. If a client or server application is not written to properly handle network delays, it may terminate the session prior to the default timeout
    period.
    For more detailed information, please refer to the thread below:
    Session doesn't close Shared Folder

  • I have had my IPAD2 for quite a while but haven't activated my cellular data for about a year.  I am now trying to activate and when I go to cellular data, turn it on and try to tap view account i just get a message that says "connection to server lost".

    I have had my IPAD2 for quite a while but haven't activated my cellular data for about a year.  I am now trying to activate and when I go to cellular data, turn it on and try to tap view account i just get a message that says "connection to server lost".  I could swear the last time I used cellular data you would see the signal in the upper left corner and I only see "no service" there, I am in a location where I know I should have service.  Is there something I should do to my IPAD?  I tried resetting, I tried clearing cookies and history in Safari (after reading a post n these discussions).  I don't know what to do next. My IOS version is 6.1.3.  I did go into Network from the general tab and I see it says "SIM not provisioned".    HELP and Thank you in advance.

    Hello Theresa818,
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities!
    It sounds like the cellular data will not activate for some reason on the iPad.
    I found this article that will help you resolve this issue here, named iPad (Wi-Fi + Cellular Models): Troubleshooting a cellular data connection, found here http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4249
    Check for a carrier settings update.
    Update your iPad.
    Toggle the Cellular Data setting off and on under Settings > Cellular Data.
    Restart your iPad.
    Tap Settings > General > About. Locate the Carrier entry and make sure that your carrier is correct.
    If your SIM card has SIM PIN enabled, try turning it off: Tap Settings > Cellular Data > SIM PIN.
    Make sure you're in an area of good coverage. If the cellular data connection works in another area, contact your carrier to report the original affected area.
    Reset network settings: Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
    Restore the iPad as new.
    If none of the above steps resolves the issue, make an appointment at an Apple Retail Store, contact your carrier, or contact AppleCare to troubleshoot further.
    I know you may have done one or two of the steps here, so you can skip those.
    Take care,
    Sterling

    I downloaded the Airport Utility 5.6 for OS X Lion and when I finish installing it sends a message that says "the instalation failed contact your software provider" And seems like thats the solution so I can use my time capsule.
    Thanks

    Thanks. Please review my post above to see that we asked five basic questions.
    Looks like we got two answers.
    Can you please provide answers to the other questions that we asked?
    1)  Are you trying to connect your Time Capsule to your modem using an Ethernet cable?
    2)  What is the make and model number of your modem?
    3)  Are you still using Lion (10.7.5) as you indicate in your profile, or have you updated to Mountain Lion or Mavericks?
    I understand that things appear clear to you there, but we cannot read your mind or see your network, so we only know as much about your problem and your network as you can tell us.
