Server can't get to internet

File server:
SunFire X4140
OpenSolaris
SunOS 5.11 svn_111b
Hi,
I'm new to sysadmin, and very new to solaris. Any help would be very much appreciated - I'm trying to get a file server back on the internet that a couple dozen people are waiting for! It's part of a small ad hoc cluster in a rack. It had been working fine every since I started to take care of things part-time 6 months ago. The other day it just dropped off the internet. Then, when I tried a console GUI login at that point it froze up (the GUI, at least). I had to use the serial management port to do a graceful reboot.
There is an external switch to which all servers are connected, and a local switch used by several (but not all) of the servers in the rack with the file server. I've inherited this system and am unsure of the full rationale of the local switch, but imagine it's for faster local file transfer.
Other servers in the rack are online, BUT they're running linux variants. The file server runs opensolaris to be able to use zfs. There's another opensolaris server in the rack but it's stuck booting up kubuntu, looking for an NFS mount and I can't get it to skip the mount - haven't focused on this b/c it's non-essential.
The file server system (see above) boots and I can login, but cannot get online. I get these errors at boot:
1) The 'opensolaris' graphical boot screen (with the moving orange progress bar) seems to hang. After several minutes I hit return to enter CLI mode. At that point I see errors 2 and 3. I can login.
2) WARNING: /pci@0,0/pci10de,cb84@2 (ohci0): Connecting device on port 2 failed
I'm not sure if this is the built-in NIC's, or built-in rear USB ports - or something else. Haven't been able to determine for sure. The rear USB ports don't seem to be working - I have to plug the keyboard into the front usb port to get it to work, so maybe it's the usb.
3) in.ndpd[429]: interface nge[0|1|2|3] has been removed from the kernel. in.ndpd will no longer use it
The server has 4 built-in ethernet ports, no others. There are three ethernet cables plugged in - two for the external switch, one for the internal switch. The error for a given interface is only generated when there is a cable plugged into the port, and regardless of whether it goes to local or external switch. Then it repeats the error every minute for 2 of the 3 cables - haven't found a pattern as to which.
If I connect only one cable, either to internal or external switch, I don't get this error. But, I still don't IPv4 address, see below.
"ifconfig -a" output (transcribed)
(cables are plugged into ports 1,2 and 3 (as labeled on the hardware) but not 0):

There might be some eventual replies to your inquiry, but you may need to realize that an online forum is the worst place to hope for help for business-critical issues. The anonymous nature of such a forum is that there is no obligation that there ever be a reply and there is no guarantee that replies are correct for your issue.
Such a system as you have described needs to be on a support contract (even though OpenSolaris isn't a supportable OS -- it's a discontinued Open Source experiment ). You need to use your support contract to contact Technical Support and open a Service Request to figure out why you have no IPV4 IP addresses, nor any current IPV6 IP addresses.
... but I do give you props for at least trying.

How can I get safe internet for protect my phone and PC

How can I get safe internet for protect my phone and PC. l lose all internet account I've three year. i lose my phone all app for a day even I safe all informating and apps in ICloud but I lose all my phone information . Like I have new phone and I do not have all my date . For new phone i can not use over 10 apps for my phone

You can't. But if you backed up your computer prior to wiping it out, you should be able to restore your iTunes library, contacts, photos, etc. from that backup. Once you do, you can set the phone up again and just sync everything from your library back to it.
If you didn't back the computer up either, you can transfer items purchased on the phone into iTunes, and if you set up at least one contact in whatever application you sync your contacts to on the computer, it will offer to merge the address books on the first sync, saving those. Any media you'd acquired from sources other than the iTunes store will have to be re-downloaded from the source or re-ripped.
The iPhone is NOT a backup device.

Can access Apple TV via airplay, but can't get to internet or iMac from Apple TV

Can access Apple TV via airplay, but can't get to internet or iMac from Apple TV. Whenever I try to put my info in it says to try later. When I test network it says network time has not been set. It has worked previously.

Try the following steps, check whether things are working after each step where appropriate, before trying the next.
Check AirPlay is turned on on the Apple TV (turn it off and on if it already is)
Check that both devices are on the same network (Settings > Wifi, on the mobile device and Settings > General > Network, on the Apple TV).
Restart the Apple TV (Settings > General > Restart).
Restart the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for 30 seconds.
Restart your router. (Also try removing it’s power cord for at least 30 seconds)
Restart your mobile device.

Can´t get mobile internet function on ZTE OPEN C

Wi-fi functions fine. But I can´t get mobile internet running. My provider gave me following settings:
Internet
APN: Click
IP Address: assigned by the network
DNS 1 Adresse: 213.055.128.001
DNS 2 Adresse: 213.055.128.002
Benutzername: -
Passwort: -
Proxy: deactivated
But there are not such fields in data settings. There is only APN, Identifier, Password, HTTP proxy host/port and authentication.
Thank you for your advice
regards
JL

hi JL,
I would try putting click in as the APN in Settings > Cellular & Data > Data Settings and also in A-GPS settings under APN. Then enable the Data connection. Otherwise I might also try gprs.swisscom.ch or internet as the APN.
thanks!Michelle

IPad 2 and iPhone 4 - can't get an internet connection while tethered

I have an iPad 2 and an iPhone 4. Been using the iPhone to tether my iPad for a few weeks and all of a sudden when it's tethered I can't get an internet connection. Both iPhone and iPad are updated with latest software.

Hello Emma I presume your in the UK.
In the UK PPPoA is the standard PPPoE is not supported by many ISP's.
On your Mac just use DHCP in your Network settings. Do not use PPPoE.
Then login to your router's web configuration page. http://192.168.0.1 or http://192.168.1.1. Admin and Password are the usual login details for netgear routers.
use the following details
PPPoA
VC-Mux
Chap authentication
vpi and vci are 38,0
and of course use your isp username and password.
Post edited. I just noticed you had already figured out the correct details.

Connected to WiFi but can not get the internet

I'm really hoping that someone can help. I bought my Ipad yesterday but am unable to connect to the internet. I have connected to my WiFi and have full signal strenght but when I go on Safari it tells me that I'm not connected. I have tried changing some of my settings but can only get as far as the message 'Cannot open page - Safari could not open the page because the server stopped responding' I also have the same problem with my Iphone and Ipod touch, I have never tried to sort these as don't need the internet on them. I have tried updating my Itunes and Ipad, both are now fully updated. My internet is working fine on any computer that is not apple... Please help, im pulling my hair out here.
Many thanks

What do you see if you go to Settings > WiFi and touch the ">" next to your network name?
If you touch the ">" you will get the details of your network connection. Things like the type of IP address allocation (DHCP, Static, Bootp), assigned IP Address, Subnet Mask, Router address, DNS addresses, etc.
Please report what you see there.
Also please identify the make, model and type of router you have.
Do you know what kind of security you are using on your router? None, WEP, WPA, WPA2?
When you said, "I have tried changing some of my settings", what did you do?

Mac Mini Server - Can't get past...

Mac Mini Server
I'm getting the "You are unable to log in to the user account xxx" message. I click OK, then the Apple icon appears, and that's as far as I can get.
I'm new to the Mac, and have had it running for a month. Set it up initially as "Host Name for local network."
Here is where I got into trouble. I changed it now to the 3rd item, "Host name for Internet." I entered a domain name I have, "ve3zt.ca" and I recall at the time that the computer name changed to VE3ZT from local.mini, or something similar. I rebooted and am in this position. Obviously, I made a major boo boo.
As I said, I now can't get past the Apple logo. Pressing any keys on the keyboard results in a "beep" from the Mini. That's it!
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank You.
Paul.

Update:
I did the "command-R" recovery and everything went smoothly. However, the message, "You are unable to log in to the user accound "xxxxx" at this time. Logging in to the account failed because an error occurred." Pressing OK brings up the Apple logo screen. Can only get out of this by pressing the power button on the Mini for several seconds.
Any advice?
Regards, Paul.

How can I get Windows Internet explorer on my MacBook air?

I have several websites that I need to use for my new job that have not been tested for Mac. I don't want to have to buy a PC laptop, so I was wondering if there is a tried and true way to get windows Internet explorer on my MacBook air.

Or install Parallels 7 and then you can run IE just like any other app from within OS X itself. That costs around $50 plus the Windows license though.
Personally I have created an IE9 RDP (remote) App on my terminal server at work and just run that. Looks like it is running on my Mac natively.

I get my internet from wifi and since hooking up the Time Capsule I can't get in internet

We get our internet from WI FI at our housing development and since hooking up my new time capsule yesterday and started the 2 day back up, I can't get online. I am not a real techno so a simple solution would be greatly appreciated! I hate to have to turn the capsule off most of the time as I like the fact that it does an auto back up. I just got the IMac a month ago and am new to Apple.

Hi,
Thank you for posting in Windows Server Forum.
Check whether you have latest client RDP installed?
As it seems the issue happens after changing service provider. I would like you to check with internet provider whether there is restriction provided at their end or any port blocked from there end. Please recheck your firewall whether RDP port 3389 is opened.
What’s your client OS version?
Apart when you are trying to take remote desktop please try to use IP address rather than name and check the result.
More information.
Why can’t I connect using Remote Desktop Connection?

Hope it helps!

Can't get onto internet through my airport extreme!!!

My airport extreme is connected to my network wirelessly. When I open the airport utility it sees the base station and I have it set up for the network. There is a green light on the base station, all seems well.
Except when I connect my laptop to the base station through an ethernet I can't get onto the internet.
When I do the network check there is a green light on the ethernet but for the network there is an amber light.
When I go into the system profiler and check the advance settings for the ethernet using the DHCP this is what I get.
IP: 169.254.192.90
Subnet Mask: 255.255.0.0
Router: nothing
When I connect to my wireless network on my lap top I get.
IP: 192.168.2.8
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
Router: 192.168.2.1
I will admit I am no genius when it comes to computers or the internet. How do I get the **** internet through my airport extreme?
Oh, and how do I find out the DHCP Client ID?

IP: 169.254.192.90
IP addresses in the 169.254.x.x range are know as "Self-Assigned" IP addresses. They typically arise when your computer, configured as a DHCP client, is unable to find or negotiate with a DHCP server.
The fact that you computer can find the 802.11n AirPort Extreme Base Station's (AEBSn) DHCP server wirelessly but not by Ethernet may be one of the following reasons:
o The Ethernet cable or cable connectors are bad.
o The Ethernet port on either the computer or the AEBSn is faulty.
o The Ethernet port on the computer is not configured properly.
Assuming the fault is the last item above, let's double-check your Mac's Ethernet settings.
System Preferences > Network > Show > Network Port Configurations
o Verify that a Built-in Ethernet option exists. If it does not, click "+" to create one. (Note: If you are unable to create a Built-in Ethernet configuration, the Ethernet card in your computer either doesn't exist or it is not recognized.)
o Verify that Built-in Ethernet is at the top of the list. If it isn't, you can drag it to the top.
Advanced > TCP/IP tab
o Configure IPv4: Using DHCP
o Configure IPv6: Automatically or Off
Advanced > DNS tab
o Verify that your ISP's DNS server(s) appear.
Advanced > Proxies tab
o Configure Proxies: Manually
o Select a proxy server to configure: <All proxies should be unchecked unless you specifically require a proxy for Internet access.>
o Exclude simple hostnames (unchecked)
o Bypass proxy settings for these Hosts & Domains: <leave blank>
o Use Passive FTP Mode (PASV) (checked)
Ethernet tab
o Configure: Automatically
Oh, and how do I find out the DHCP Client ID?
You would create the DHCP Client ID by entering a value in this field in System Preferences. (ref: System Preferences > Network > Advanced > TCP/IP > DHCP Client ID)

EAP-FAST on Local Radius Server : Can't Get It Working

Hi all
I'm using an 877w router (flash:c870-advsecurityk9-mz.124-24.T4.bin) as local radius server and have followed various config guides on CCO. LEAP works fine but I just can't get EAP-FAST to work.
I'm testing with win7 client using anyconnect secure mobility client, and also a mac book pro but without luck.
the router sees unknown auth type, and when I run some debugs it talks of unknown eap type 3

I live in an apartment with supplied internet. I have wireless network with no password. I have a wall outlet that I can plug into. When I plug in my TC I get a double NAT error. I try bridge mode, but I can't get the internet to work.

Can I get an explanation of what bridge mode is?
Can I get suggestions on what I should do to use the TC as a wireless device to spread the same wireless device my apartment is broadcasting?
Can I get a suggestion on how to use the TC as a different wireless device with it's own password without access to the cable modem. I only have access to a wall port.
I own many apple devices, iMac mid-2011, Macbook Air 2013, 2 ipads, and 2 iphones for the family, and Apple TV.
I want all my devices to be on a password related internet but the double nat on my TC makes weird things happen and slow. I try bridge mode but the internet doesn't work.
I hope I have described this situation clearly enough.
Thanks

I want all my devices to be on a password related internet but the double nat on my TC makes weird things happen and slow. I try bridge mode but the internet doesn't work.
You building supplied internet is a cheap service that is without proper routable addresses..
Therefore to use more than one IP you MUST have double NAT.. sorry there is no choice..
Slow that is because you are sharing internet with every other person in the building.. get your own broadband service.
Bridge will not work.. it cannot work because the building only has private IP addressing. And they only give you a single address.
You can put a password on the wireless.. go to the airport utility and put in a password.
Other than that I don't understand what password you expect.
Can I get an explanation of what bridge mode is?
No NAT.. means the TC becomes a dumb Wireless AP and switch.. works fine with a cable modem router.. or any broadband router but useless with your building system.
Can I get suggestions on what I should do to use the TC as a wireless device to spread the same wireless device my apartment is broadcasting?
Double NAT, and set your own wireless names. There is no alternative.. sorry.
