No Internet Connection In Solaris 10 Please Help

I installed Solaris 10 on a Dell Dimension 3000 on my home network. It took my 3 days to finally figure out that I had to make changes to my /etc/driver.alias file but I finally got my integrated Intel pro/100 nic to work.
Now I can ping my DSL gateway and I can ping the other 'Windows' computers on my network but I cannot connect to the Internet. Help will be greatly appreciated.
Also. I am able to access my Gateways configuration pages through the web browser with http://192.168.1.1.
Thanks in advance.

Looks like you need to setup your /etc/resolv.conf and use the correct /etc/nsswitch.conf
1. To setup /etc/resolv.conf you need to know your ISP's nameserver IP. Since you have access to your router, you can get those information from there.
For example, my /etc/resolv.conf looks like this:
search comcast.com comcast.net
nameserver <comcast's primary nameserver ip>
nameserver <comcast's secondary nameserver ip>
2. Setup your /etc/nsswitch.conf by copying the /etc/nsswitch.dns to /etc/nsswitch.conf
After you make these changes, reboot the box and try pinging www.google.com

When open Firefox 8, says 'Unable to connect' and no websites work. Internet connection is fine. Please help :(

My Firefox automatically updated to Firefox 8. Since doing so, when I open the browser the screen displays a box saying 'Unable to connect' and says the same for any website. My internet connection is fine. I uninstalled and installed Firefox again, but problem persists. Please help as this is really frustrating me :(

Did you try this?
'''Remove Firefox from your program's list of trusted or recognized programs, then add it back.'''
Some Firewalls don't specify which version of Firefox is permitted. <br />New version of Firefox = new executable was installed = new permission is needed

HT5945 Why does Instal Java SE 6 keep popping up and when I attempt to install it says that there is a problem with the internet connection ??? Please help

I keep getting a pop up reminder to install Java SE 6. When I attempt to install it an error occurs saying that there is a internet connection problem and the Java cannot be intalled. This thing pops up every 15 minutes. Am I doing something wrong? Thanks for any help

OK, so you don't have a working iTunes.
What I would like to do now is to try installing each iTunes component separately.
First uninstall the 5 iTunes programs that you have installed.
You should have iTunesSetup.exe saved in a folder on your PC, probably in the downloads folder. If not download and save it now.
Open the folder containing iTunessetup.exe with explorer.
Next open notepad and copy the following 3 lines into it.
md temp
itunessetup /extract temp
pause
Save the file as extract.bat into the same folder that contains the itunes installer.
Open the downloads folder and you should find the extract file that you saved. Double click on it and a black window will open telling you what it is doing. When its finished, press any key to continue.
You should find that a folder called temp has been created containing all the itunes msi files.
Install in this order by double clicking on them:
Apple Application Support
Bonjour
Apple Mobile Device Support
Apple Software Update
Quicktime
iTunes
If one of the installs fails, stop and post the error message in full. I am hoping that by doing this separately we will get a better error message.

If the Ethernet chipset is supported, you then need to install the drivers.
By the way, very few wireless networking chipsets are supported.

Thanks. I have followed all the instructions as recommended and nothing has worked so it looks like the restore/update may have been interrupted - would loss of internet connection do this?
Yes it would, possibly even brick it.
Have successfully connected my ipod nano with iTunes so looks like the device driver is working.
Can I use my ipod nano USB connector to check?
It is not much help to you, since the device that you need still not recognized.
Anyway looks like I may have to swallow the loss of data. Have set-up a call for tomorrow with Apple support so will wait until after this before doing the factory restore!
Good luck, but if you expect miracle from that call good luck again.

No it doesn't. Sometimes it make a sound that it should when connecting but that is it. Never actually charges or syncs. And it is a brand new cord.

EUREKA, I found the solution to my problem in a Discussion initiated by gingertodd on July 27, 2011 entitled "Safari in Lion hijacked by malware." The solution was provided by Badunit who recommended force quitting Safari and then reopening it while holding down the Shift key. It worked instantly, and I subsequently was able to open Safari normally by just clicking on its icon in the Dock. THANK YOU BADUNIT!

No Internet connection was found. Please check your Internet settings or firewall.

When I try to update I get this message:
"No Internet connection was found. Please check your Internet settings or firewall."
and porgram won't update.
I tried "fixes" offered on ADOBE website to no avail.
Anyone know how to fix this ?
1 minute of silence for that awesome forum that ADOBE was....sniff sniff

ADOBE tech "support" isn't of much use in this. They suggest me to manually update. I know CS3 is fixed update not requiring more download after 3.2, but my updater used to run fine and now it doesn't on a freesh computer install. I'd like to fix this cause this is an indicator that something is wrong on my computer.
The only advice I got after 15-20 minutes was to check permissions on my computer, that this might be cause of it.
I put permission on my firewall to all adobe program I could find on my computer, turned off UAC doesn't work; tried firewall + spyware + antivirus to zero protection = doesn't work either.
I've read that been plugged into a router on a 2 computers network can cause problem. How ? I know Adobe Updater doesn't support proxy server.

I tried puggin directly into modem and didn't change anything. I think maybe that my main computer might be blocking or filtering my internet connection or a setup in it: I don't know networking setup at all.
Maybe it's windows vista on my computer that has updated to something that would block my adobe updater.
Any suggestion ?
Thank you.
