Problem setting up networking in Solaris 8

Hi,
I have been struggling for a couple of days with the following problem:
I am running Solaris 8 on an Intel networked machine. The NIC is D-Link DFE-530TX+, I had to download a beta driver for Solaris 8 from Realtek (this NIC uses a Reltek 8139 chipset). As far as I could see the driver installation went OK, I see the Ethernet interface with "ifconfig -a".
I am using a home network with a Linux gateway to a cable Internet connection. The problem is, however, that the gateway (or any other machine on the local network) is not visible from my new Solaris 8 box. When I try to ping other machines on the network, the Solaris 8 box first broadcasts an ARP request to resolve the IP address to a hardware address -- I verified that with "snoop" and could also see that the network switch was showing traffic to all nodes. It seems, however, that none of the other machines reply or that they reply but the Solaris box does not get the answer... I tried to "hardcode" the Ethernet hardware addresses of the other machines into ARP (as in "arp -s <host_name> <hardware_address>") -- the result was that the Solaris did not do the ARP broadcast before the ping (since it had the hardware address of the pinged box) but it also did not receive a reply to any of the ping requests (this time, the network switch showed traffic between the Solaris box and the pinged box only).
Exactly the same problem occurs when I try to ping the Solaris box from other boxes on the local network (first, no reply to the ARP broadcast, then, after hardcoding the Ethernet address, no reply to the ping request). It seems that the Solaris and the rest of the machines on the network do not speak the same language :)
I am really kind of stuck since I do not know if it is a problem with the beta driver for the D-Link DFE-530TX+ (unlikely) or something that I am doing wrong (likely). I considered using another NIC to test if I sould configure the machine fine but I decided to check if anyone can help me with an advice.
Any help or suggestion will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

Hi,
It's me again. Just wanted to give some more information...
I could confirm that the Solaris 8 box actually transmits data on the network via the D-Link DFE-530TX+ adapter but does not receive anything. What I did was:
1. A "tcpdump" (Linux stuff) on the gateway Linux machine and then a "ping" from the Solaris 8 machine to the Linux box with no ARP setup on the Solaris 8 box (the Solaris box first sends an ARP request to get the MAC address of the Linux box). The Linux machine showed that it does receive the ARP requests (something like "who is linux.machine.name") and that it does send back its MAC address to the Solaris box (something like "linux.machine.name is at MAC ..."). The Solaris machine did not receive crap ("snoop" did not show anything and "netstat" showed no incoming packages).
2. Same thing as above but specified the Linux machine MAC in ARP manually. Solaris did not send the ARP request but sent an ICMP echo request right away from the "ping". The Linux box got the request ("tcpdump" showed that) and sent an acknowledgement back. Solaris did not see crap again.
3. A "ping" request from Linux to Solaris. Linux sent the ARP request first to get the MAC of Solaris and (you may have already guessed it) Solaris did not receive crap and Linux decided that Solaris is unreachable.
4. Same as 3 but I ran it a short period of time after case 1 (note that the ARP request from the Solaris box was received during case 1 and had the Solaris MAC address in it which Linux wisely cached and used for the ICMP echo request from the "ping" instead of trying to obtain it like in case 3). Well, it should sound familiar, but Solaris did not see crap again.
Actually, I think it is impossible for my Solaris machine to receive anything on the D-Link DFE-530TX+ adapter using the RealTek driver (rtls is the name). After a day of futile efforts, netstat showed 0 incoming packages.
I am about ready to give up... My D-Link card is revision C1 which, according to the D-Link support people, should have a RealTek 8139 chipset (that is NOT the name printed on the chip itself). Obviously either the RealTek driver is buggy or the chipset on my card is not what it is...
Any (last) suggestions are welcome. Is there anybody out there that used ANY drivers for the D-Link DFE-520TX+ and got it working? Anybody?

Problems setting up ldap on solaris 10.

when trying to set up LDAP on Solaris 10 I am asked for an LDAP profile and the address of the ldap server. I know the address of the LDAP server but what is the profile, and how do I set it up with active directory?

Hi,
The profile defines how the client will interact with the server. On a Solaris server, you set this file up with the /usr/lib/ldap/idsconfig command. On the client, you use ldapclient init -a profileName=xyz -a domainName=your.domain <server.ip.adderss.here:portno> portno not necessary if you are using port 389 on server. I'm not sure how you duplicate the functionality of that file from a Windows server. Maybe if you look at man page on idsconfig, it may help identify what needs to be done on Windows server to create a profile the Solaris client can use. I went to MS TechNet and searched for "ldap server for solaris client" A lot of hits. Hope this helps.

Problem setting up Network User

I am running Mac OS X 10.5 Server with clients running 10.5 also. Currently, there are several users on the server, but in Workgroup Manager, their home directory is set to null. The users have local accounts on certain 10.5 clients which are linked to their accounts on the server. So when they log in to the client, they are authenticated against their account on the server, and various settings (Mail, iCal) are picked up from the server.
I now need to allow users to log in to any client machine without setting up a local account (and linking it to the server account) first. So I have gone through the procedures specified in the 'User Management v10.5' documentation, specifically the 'Administering Share Points' and 'Administering Home Folders -> Creating a Network Home Folder' sections. I have used the second set of procedures to create a network home folder for a single test user. I assume that this makes the test user a 'Network User', though how to create a 'Network User' is not explicitly specified anywhere.
The problem is that on a client machine (that does not have a local account for the test user), the test user's network account is not listed on the login screen (though the login settings indicate it should be), and I also cannot log in as the test user by clicking on 'Other...' and supplying the requisite credentials. I should note that the client Mac is 'attached' to the server (eg. through Directory Utility).
Can anyone provide advice as to what's going wrong? Is there some other (secret?!) step that is needed to create a Network User so that clients see the user and allow the user to login?
Many, many thanks,
Jolin

Hi Leif,
Many thanks for your reply.

The only way of "linking" a "local" account on a computer to a OpenDirectory account that I know of is to create the "network" account homefolder on the local/client machine HD when the user is logging in to the OD server for the first time.
Actually, it is possible to not have a network account or home folder, and link a local user to a user account on the server. When a client computer is bound to the OpenDirectory server, in the 'Accounts' preference pane of the client computer, there is a field called 'Server Account:' with a 'Set…' button. Clicking the 'Set…' button allows one to link the local account to the server account. Even though there is no home directory on the server, when the user logs in to the client Mac, the password and any managed preferences for that account are taken from the server account.
The client machine has to be bound to OD first and the account should preferably be setup as a mobile account (so the account can be used even if the computer isn't connected to the network - logins are cached locally).
I have bound the client machine to the OD server, but I have not yet set up the account as a mobile account. I plan to do this eventually, but wanted to get the 'basic' network user account working first.
For a "true network home" folder residing only on a server volume/share, the OD account should use a share(point) setup in Server Admin for an automount AFP (or NFS) "User home folders" share.
I have done this. The server has a sharepoint called 'Homes' which is set to automount over AFP, with the setting 'Use for: User home folders and group folders'. This seems to be working, because on the client Mac, the 'Homes' sharepoint automatically appears when browsing the available network volumes.
Then in the OD the user should be setup to use the automatically created path (afp://<server FQDN>/<shared folder>) as it's homefolder path.
I believe I've done this as well, using Workgroup Manager. When viewing the 'Basic' tab of the user, the 'Home:' is given as 'afp://<server FQDN>/Homes/jwarren'. That looks right to me, but I cannot login as the user 'jwarren' from the client Mac's login screen (Network Users are enabled on the client Mac). When I log in as a different user on the client Mac, I can browse the network, and the above afp path is automatically mounted.
Is there some other setting needed so that the client Mac will 'see' the network user I have set up? As I say, the autmount sharepoint is set up, and the user is set up in OpenDirectory (on the server) to have a home folder on the automount. But when I'm at the login screen on the client Mac, the network user does not appear in the list, and if I try to login by typing the username and password manually, the login window just shakes as it does when one enters the incorrect password.
Any further help much appreciated!

Problem setting up network on iBook in OS X 10.4.11

A friend has an old iBook G4 running OS 10.4.11. After not having used the machine in a while, she needs to use it for a bit before getting a new one. There is a problem, though: in System Preferences, opening Network to set up a current internet connection, a window immediately pops up that says "Your network settings have been changed by another application" followed by an "OK" button. Hitting the button makes the window disappear for only a second or two before it pops up again, in a perpetual loop. Can't get out of it, and can't set up the network. This had not happened in the past. What might be causing this, and what to do about it?
The machine has recently been checked with Disk Utility, TechTool, and DiskWarrior. No problems.

Thanks. What has happened is that we were able to get an internet connection in spite of this issue by rebooting the cable modem and plugging it in directly. However, the problem is still there in the background: if we try opening Network in System Preferences, the same window pops up saying "Your network settings have been changed by another application" and we are trapped in the same loop. I don't understand where this weird behavior came from. It's a problem in that should she want to take the laptop somewhere to use wifi, for instance, it will be hard/impossible to change things in the Network settings.

Problems setting up network

1. I have a Mac Mini. It works fine.
2. I have an Airport Express Base Station in an outlet & connected to my stereo ( to be able to play Itunes on stereo)
3. I do not seem to be able to set up my wireless network. Th eAirport Express blinks yellow. As I understand it the Mac Mini should be enough to create a wireless network and the Airport Express should be able to pick up the signals.
What did I miss?

Unfortunately others have reported problems trying to configure the AX from a Mac that has Internet Sharing activated.
You should be able to activate Internet Sharing on your Mac mini (Ethernet to AirPort) and then use AirPort Admin Utility to configure the AX to join the network created by your Mac mini.
However others have reported that they needed to use another computer to configure the AX.

Problems Setting up my wireless network with an Xb...

Hi, I have had some problems setting up my wireless networking.
I have everything switched on and am able to go online with the laptop and the Xbox with no problems but when I try to share media with the xbox I have problems.
I have opened the ports specified in the setup from xbox on windows firewall and have no problem connection Via Ethernet cable but when using wireless the xbox cannot detect the laptop.
I have checked the network map and both xbox and laptop are connected and have enabled sharing and am running sharing software.
Below is the network map.
I have also been having problems with BT software, the free virus protection will not install, The desktop help will not launch although it shows up on task manager and the installation disk does not launch correctly it doesn't get past the loading screen.
I have had a printer on the wireless network and had no problems printing.
If anyone knows how to resolve this please help.

I have this same Motorola modem and I just verified that my 802.11n AirPort Express Base Station (AXn) can get Internet access with this modem without any issues.
When changing ISPs (or networking equipment) it's always a good idea to start from "scratch" in configuring your equipment.
I would recommend that you do the following as a minimum:
Power-down the modem, AirPort base station, and computer(s).
While all of the devices are powered-down, perform a "factory default" reset on the base station. This will get it back to its "out-of-the-box" configuration and make setting it up much easier, especially if you use the "Assist me" process within the AirPort Utility. (ref: Resetting an AirPort Base Station or Time Capsule)
After the base station resets, go ahead and power it back down.
Power-up the modem; wait at least 10-15 minutes.
Power-up the base station; wait at least 5-10 minutes.
Power-up your computer(s).
In this basic configuration, computers connected to the base station, either by wire or wireless (as appropriate for the base station type), should now be able to access the Internet through the ISP's modem. Once Internet connectivity has been verified, you can use the AirPort Utility to configure the base station for wireless security and any other desired options.

Problems setting up Time Machine using a network drive

I am having problems setting up TimeMachine on my Mac Mini to work with a WD MyBookLive network drive. The network drive came with a TimeMachineBackup shared folder preconfigured. When I first connected the drive to the router and turned on TimeMachine, the TimeMachineBackups appeared as an option when I did "Select Backup Disk" from TimeMachine Preferences.
I managed to successfully connect to the drive and start a backup running. However the backup hit a problem and I started getting an error that the "disk was already in use". I therefore tried to remove the disk to try and start again. Hoever when I now do go into "Select Backup Disk" from TimeMachine Preferences the shared folder on the drive no longer apperas and I only get the option to serach for an Time Capsule.
If I go into Finder, the MyBookLive shows up as a connected Device with all its shared folders showing (including the TimeMachineBackup folder) and my Mac is definitely connected to the drive. How do I get the Drive & TimeCapsuleBackup shared folder to reappear in TimeMachine Preferences so that I can select it as the destination for my backups?

Check around the forum, you are one of very very many. It doesn't matter what WD say, do you see a Certified by Apple notice on it?

Problems with setting up network

Hello,
I recently bought an AirPort Extreme, but have had difficutly setting the device up. I guess part (or most) of the difficutly is confusion on my part. When I plugged the router in, it showed up in AirPort Utility, so I double-clicked on it to configure it. I set the network name and password just fine, but when I was trying to configure IP settings I ran into trouble. I wanted to assign a range of IP addresses to clients who connect to the router wirelessly, so under the 'Connection Sharing' drop-down menu I chose 'Distribute a Range of IP addresses'. When I set it up, it seemed like the right thing to do, but after downloading the 'Designing AirPort Networks' guide off the Support site, it seems as if it's not the right choice. So my first question is: "Which setting should I set this to if I want to assign IP addresses that fall in a certain range to clients who connect to the router wirelessly? I should note that I would like to assign my own IP addresses (preferably the ones in the range 10.0.x.x), not ones that are in the range of the IP address assigned to my router by my ISP (Comcast).
Then... I was confused as to which field was which under the 'Internet Connection' tab of the 'Internet' section in the window. Now, in order to achieve what I described in the previous paragraph, I need to 'Manually' configure IPv4. First off: What is IPv4, and what's the difference between IPv4 and IPv6? After switching the drop-down menu to 'Manual', I didn't know what to enter in some of the fields. I knew what to enter for 'Subnet Mask', because I had seen it before on other routers as the default: 255.255.255.0. But then there were the 'IP address' and 'Router Address' fields. Before I get into this, I had a pretty good idea that these had to do with my router's WAN IP address and it's LAN IP address. Before the AirPort Extreme, I had a Linksys wireless router and from what I understand, the IP addresses assigned to clients are usually extentions of what the Router's LAN IP address is. For example: If the router has an LAN IP address of 192.168.1.1, you would generally set the range of client IP addresses to 192.168.1.100 through 192.168.1.1xx. So my next question is: Which field is the routers LAN IP address, and which field is the routers WAN IP address? I know that the router's WAN IP address is assigned by my ISP, and I assume that I assign the router my own LAN IP address; one that would correspond with the range of IP addresses the clients would be assigned. Just to note: If I'm completely wrong about any (or all) or this, someone please correct me.
I bought an AirPort Express about 9 months ago, and it was super easy to set up and use (just what I would expect from Apple). Back then I used the combination of 'AirPort Admin Utility' and 'AirPort Setup Assistant' to set up and reconfigure my AirPort express. With those two programs, it was a breeze, but with this new 'AirPort Utility', I have had more problems that I could ever imagine. If someone could please set me straight on all of this, I would really appreciate it.
Thank you in advance,
Trevor

I wanted to assign a range of IP addresses to clients who connect to the router wirelessly, so under the 'Connection Sharing' drop-down menu I chose 'Distribute a Range of IP addresses'.
This would be the correct choice if your ISP had provided you with a range of static IP addresses, instead, for what you want to do, you want to select "Share a public IP address."
Which setting should I set this to if I want to assign IP addresses that fall in a certain range to clients who connect to the router wirelessly? I should note that I would like to assign my own IP addresses (preferably the ones in the range 10.0.x.x), not ones that are in the range of the IP address assigned to my router by my ISP (Comcast).
Using the AirPort Utility, click on Internet, and then, click on the DHCP tab to select it. In the "DHCP Beginning Address" & "DHCP Ending Address" fields, enter the desired private LAN IP address range.
Now, in order to achieve what I described in the previous paragraph, I need to 'Manually' configure IPv4.
Unless you want to provide static IP addresses to the devices connected to your wireless network, it would be easier to let them get assigned dynamic IP address via the AEBSn's DHCP service.
First off: What is IPv4, and what's the difference between IPv4 and IPv6?
How about I just let Wikipedia provide the explanation.
Which field is the routers LAN IP address, and which field is the routers WAN IP address?
The IP Address, Subnet Mask, Router Address, DNS Server(s), and Domain Name fields are, typically populated by your ISP when "Configure IPv4: Using DHCP" is set...and represent the "WAN" side of the AEBSn.
I bought an AirPort Express about 9 months ago, and it was super easy to set up and use (just what I would expect from Apple). Back then I used the combination of 'AirPort Admin Utility' and 'AirPort Setup Assistant' to set up and reconfigure my AirPort express. With those two programs, it was a breeze, but with this new 'AirPort Utility', I have had more problems that I could ever imagine. If someone could please set me straight on all of this, I would really appreciate it.
Any particular reason you didn't just use the "Assist Me Setup" mode of the AirPort Utility? It works pretty much like the old "AirPort Setup Assistant" version.

Need help - setup network in solaris

Hello! Today I install Solaris 10 for learning in my laptop and have some trouble. Please help me
1. Set up network interface for wi-fi card iwi0
(a. ifconfig iwi0 plumb
b. wificonfig iwi0 connect airJet
c. ifconfig iwi0 dhcp)
2. Set up default route (route add default 192.168.100.2 (its my access point with dhcp server))
Ping -s 192.168.100.2 -> done
But when I trying in Firefox open any url - recieve error "host not found"
okay. in terminal i put
ping google.com
and recieve answer
host not found
What is my problem?
Thanks for u answers.

Try changing hosts line in /etc/nsswitch.conf to:
hosts dns files
so that hostnames will be resolved via your dns servers. You also need to enter dns server info in /etc/resolv.conf.
Here's a tutorial: [Configuring Networking|http://solaris-x86.org/documents/tutorials/network.mhtml ] (kind of dated, but most of the info is still relevant)

Authentication is required to set the network proxy used for downloading packages

hello all,
we bought a Sun X3-2 and our reseller installed OL6.5 and SRS 5.4.2. When user logs in, a window occurs regularly, displaying this message.
Authentication is required to set the network proxy used for downloading packages
After click on Cancel, the window re-appears then minutes after. It seems that it is related to polkit:
/usr/libexec/polkit-gnome-authentication-agent-1
Can i stop this service? Are there any hints to tune Oracle Linux when using sunrays? users don't need to update packages because the server is managed.
thanks in advance for help,
gerard

i'm not fully agree with you, this problem arises because i'm using sunray. But you're right, i found the solution when searching on the net, not in oracle forums.
The solution is to create
.config/autostart/*.desktop
with:
X-GNOME-Autostart-enabled=false
it seems ok, even if i have other problems, for instance, firefox and thunderbird crashing regularly, even if i'm up to date with packages (uln too).
In the past, i used to use sunrays with solaris 10, it existed a document to tune gnome when using sunrays, i don't find the same thing with oracle linux.
thanks for your reply,
gerard

Problems setting up static routing

HI
I'm having a problem setting up static routing. I keep getting the message "invalid static route". I have an E1550 router and my frimware is up to date. I have tried a few different gateway addresses ie 192.168.1.1, 127.0.0.1 and my router's address on the net, but I keep getting the same message. Has anyone else had this problem and been able to fix it?

I think the E1550 router supports LAN to LAN routing provided that you have two local networks. If you only have a plain modem and the E1550, I believe you can't do Static routing on that type of setup.

Problems Setting up a Direct Debit

has anyone experienced any problems setting up a direct debit ??
I've been a BT customer for approximately 20 years and have had the same account number. I've moved house a few times and retained the same account. My last house move wasn't so successful as after moving in and having broadband re set up again... I received a letter in the post saying I had requested a "termination" and a parcel was included to send my router back etc... plus... I'd be charged £100+ for the disconnection...
Anyway I got on the phone to BT and the advisor appologised for the mix up... and suggested I cancel my direct debit with the bank to make sure the disconnection fee wasn't taken from my account.....
Ever since then... I have not being able to set up a direct debit online or by speaking with several BT helpdesk staff. I email BT asking for an explaination - NOTHING. BT helpdesk staff assure me that the direct debit will work this time and will contact me if there is a problem... again NOTHING. I even tried writing a letter to the head of customer services... I think the name Warren Buckley rings a bell.. Someone did email me back suggesting I use the online facility.... REALLY!! Do BT not have a fault tracking database of customer issues... so they can see I've already tried to set up the direct debit online...
Anyway ..... I've just noticed this forum now... so this is my latest attempt to see if anyone senior enough at BT will be embarrassed and try and sort out my account so I can start paying my bill using Direct Debit again... I'm pretty sure all that needs to happen is to be given a new account number or an account alias that can be sent to my bank. Otherwise... I'll just carry on waiting to receive the automated message from BT saying I haven't paid and then go and pay online... But I am worried one of these automated messages will arrive the day I go on a 2 week holiday and I find myself cut off when I get home... giving me more pain....
PLEASE HELP BT ;o)

Ro,
Thanks for the respone, have been playin, with MPLS for last few hours.
The routing between the loopbacks is now working, can PING 7609 Loopback from AS5350 ,and vice versa. (used static routes).
Having problem with TDP / LDP on routers,
mpls label protocol ldp / tdp command works correctly on both routers, but the
tag-switching tdp router-id Loopback0 force
command works on the 7609, but when I add it onto the AS5350 , the command "mpls ldp router-id Loopback0 force" appears on the startup script.
The opposite is true for the 7609 , you add MPLS LDP command, and TAG-SWITCHING command appears instead.
Any Ideas, as different configs of this leave me with forwarding table with both tags added, but not been able to ping the loopbacks !!!
When I can ping bot loopbacks, the OUTGOING TAG , disapears.....
Problem is LOOPBACK Commands on bot routers default to LDP (AS5350) , or TDP (7609). Any Ideas ...

Problems setting up WRT54G2 router

I'm having problems setting up my Linksys WRT54G2 router. I want my mac laptop (iBook G3 running OSX) to use a wireless connection, and the home computer (running Windows XP) to stay connected to the modem.
I originally tried to set up the router by connecting it via ethernet to my laptop (and by ethernet to the modem), and went into the 192.168.1.1 address to configure it. The internet works fine on my laptop when connected to the wireless by ethernet but it can't connect wirelessly (it has an original airport card fitted, at first I thought I might need to upgrade the firmware but I ran a software update and one didn't come up). I then realised that I would need to MAC clone from the PC, that is connected to the modem? I tried to do this today, but I couldn't access the 192.168.1.1 address from the PC. I have tried resetting the router, and disabling the firewall but still can't access it. This PC also has anti-virus software running too - could this be the problem, or am I setting it up wrong? Thanks.

If you are trying to Setup your Router with the setup disk, Then you can exit from the setup and configure your Router manually. Before you configure your router, you need to Press and hold the reset button for 60 seconds...Release the reset button...Unplug the power cable from your router, wait for 60 seconds and re-connect the power cable.....
You need to connect your Modem to Linksys Router on Internet Port and your Computer to Linksys Router on Port No.1.
