Setting duplex and speed for NIC

Can anyone tell me what the correct way is to set the duplex and speed on a NIC is in Solaris 10? I know that you can use the "ndd" command to manually set them but I'm looking to having this done automatically when the machine boots. So far, I can think of putting these commands inside /etc/system but I'm really looking for the correct way of doing things.

The correct way would be to set it in the config file for your interface's driver, usually found in /kernel/drv. For example, T5220s come with e1000g interfaces. You can use /kernel/drv/e1000g.conf to configure a whole lot more than just duplex and speed.

  • Need to permanently set network link modes (duplex and speed)

    Hello everyone,
    I have an Intel on-board network card  which does not play well with my FritzBox. According to Intel this is a known issue in how the card negotiates its link mode. Intel provided a tool to set the link mode under windows (because the standard windows settings did not persist). Now I successfully figured out how to set duplex and speed to the appropriate values but i have to do this every time on boot with
    $ ethtool -s eno1 speed 100 duplex full
    My question now is twofold:
    1. Is there any other way to persistently set those values? I know about mii-tool but this reports my card is not supported and I don't know if it would persist a reboot.
    2. If i need to run ethtool on every boot: What would be the preferred (best-practice) way to do it? I'm still really new to arch and Linux but cursory reading indicates to write a systemd service.
    Cheers
    Kai

  • 9124 duplex and speed issue

    Trying to install a new 9124.
    The ethernet switch port for the mgmt port of the 9124 is set to full 100 and the 9124 came set to auto auto.
    The mgmt port is comming up as half duplex.
    When trying to set the duplex and speed of the mgmt port to full 100, it appers to take the change but does not retain it and it still comes up as half duplex.
    So it appears that the 9214 mgmt port will not take the change of setting to full 100.
    I have tried to change it with the port down but it won't take changes when down.
    If I change it while up and save it and bounce the port it reverts back to half when it comes up.
    If I make the change and reboot it reverts back.
    Any idea how to force the mgmt port to full 100 and get it to stick?

    There is one more defect solved in later 5.x releases where 91xx will end up in half duplex for mgmt interface.
    Workaround would be to configure both sides to auto.

  • Setting different mouse speed for different mice

    I have an Apple Magic Mouse that I've used with my iMac for a while. I recently picked up a wireless Kensington laptop mouse for my 4 year-old twins to use because the Magic Mouse is difficult for my daughter to use. The Kensington mouse is good because it is smaller and has two obvious buttons for her to use.
    The problem is that the Kensington mouse tracks way faster than the Magic Mouse. Is there a way (either through preferences or third party software) to set a custom speed for each mouse?
    thanks!

    USB OverDrive can customize speeds and button behaviouir differently for different input devices. You should remove the Kensington mouse driver. However it does look as if it disables Apple's own Magic Mouse drivers without replacing some of the facilities, so you would need to research that before proceeding.
    Also note that USB OverDrive is so far not compatible with the Magic Trackpad, and prevents the latter's Prefs Pane from loading (thus preventing you setting gestures) so if you were thinking of getting a Magic TrackPad, USB Overdrive isn't a good purchase.

  • How set  UserName and Password for HTTP Basic Authentication for a servlet

    Hi..
    How set UserName and Password for HTTP Basic Authentication for a servlet in JBoss server?
    Using Tomcat i can do it .(By setting roles in web.xml, and user credintails in tomcat-user.xml).
    But i dont know how do it in JBOSS..
    I am using Netbeans and Eclipse IDEs.. Can we do it by using them also!?
    Thank u

    Hi Raj,
    You can do this by creating a Login screen for the users and check the authentication of each user in PAI i.e. PROCESS AFTER INPUT.
    Store the user information in a database table and check the username and password when the user enters it.
    You can display password as *** also. For this double click on input box designed for password and goto Display tab. Select Invisible in the list and check it.
      CASE sy-ucomm.
        WHEN 'BACK'.
          LEAVE PROGRAM.
        WHEN <fcode for submit>.
          SELECT SINGLE uname pwd
           FROM <DB table>
           INTO (user, pass)
           WHERE username = user AND
                   password = passwd.
          IF sy-subrc = 0.
    <Go to next screen for further processing>
          ELSE.
    <Display Error message and exit>
          ENDIF.
      ENDCASE.

  • Set default mouse speed for guest user?

    Anyone know how, where to set a default mouse speed for all users. I have an iMac running Maverick. I set my personal mouse speed near the highest. The default speed is the same slow pace for the guest profile and I would like to change and KEEP it a little faster. Currently when I log out of guest account, all settings, files, etc are deleted. I am admin so ... anyone? Help? Something akin to the windows registry? I'm a newbie to Mac OS X, but learn quick.

    Hi,
    Try with SHD0 (Transaction and Screen Variants) .

  • IPad set up and syncing for my mom--help!

    I just bought an iPad for my mom. I want to set it up for her (she's not too tech savvy). A couple of things to know about my situation:
    - she is a PC user
    So, I can set up her iPad at work where I have access to a PC. I have her iTunes log-in information to do so, however, when she goes to sync it on her very own PC at her house, will it be okay? ( ie: everything will be intact and accounted for?) I won't be able to hands on help her if it does not... She's in WI and I'm in CA.
    I'm thinking the initial activation at my work PC should be fine ( just as the Apple sales staff activates iPads or iPhones at their store and then we go home to sync).
    Please provide me with some guidance and answers to this.... I really want her to use this seamlessly
    -D

    If you purchase anything she'll have to transfer purchases via iTunes, but I've reformatted and then synched fine so all should go well.
    If all else fails you can always use a free trial of the likes of GoToMeeting or even easier for her GoToAssist to take control of her pc and fix things.
    Note: don't work for Citrix, just like their products and know they have 30 day trial accounts.

  • Reminder app not working correctly, issue started around Sept. 1,2014. Will not allow me to set date and time for a reminder.

    Today I noticed an issue with my Reminder app on my IPhone 5s. Using OS 7.1.2. I called Apple, and the tech didn't know what he was doing and just trying different things.The reminder app will not let me set a date and time for reminder. Finally he escalated the call to a senior advisor who was rude, arrogant and unprofessional. He insisted the Reminder App was updated with the new update of IOS September/October 2013. Not true, the issue just started about 5 days ago August 31,2014. Now there is an additional reminder line for reminder entries that I have to use and have to transfer all my reminders manually from the other part of the app. The feature does exist; if I try to set a date and time for the reminder it appears for 1-2 seconds and then disappears.
    Has anyone else noticed this issue?

    He insisted the Reminder App was updated with the new update of IOS September/October 2013. Not true
    Yes, it is true.
    iOS 7 was released 18 Sep 2013. At this time, the Reminders app was updated (with most everything else).
    the issue just started about 5 days ago August 31,2014.
    Your issue just started but the app was not updated 5 days ago.
    Now there is an additional reminder line for reminder entries that I have to use
    I don’t understand what this means...
    Open Reminders, type the reminder, tap the i at the end, turn on Remind me on a day and enter the date/time.

  • Set date and time for all macs in the network

    Hi,
    I need to set the time and date for all of our Macs in the network, I have tried to have a look at Workgroup manager but I can not see anything.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks in advance,

    Once the ntp setting is initially loaded, it should not need to be changed.  But you know that, of course.
    If you're looking to automate ntp configuration as part of system imaging (SIU, InstaDMG, etc) and client set-up, then that's certainly possible; that sort of discussion is regular fodder on the Mac Enterprise mailing list.  (Check the archives over there for some interesting discussions.)  Here are some related discussions that might interest you, too:

  • Can you set textRolloverColor and textSelectedColor for a DataGrid via styleFunction?

    Ok so I have a DataGrid with a default row text color set. I use the styleFunction to change the text color of a row if a certain condition is met by returning the new color. However, I would also like the textRolloverColor and textSelectedColor for said rows to change as well based on these same conditions. Is there any way to do this? Any help is much appreciated.

    I tried using setStyle but that didn't seem to work. However, I was able to add textSelectedColor to the object being returned to the row and that worked.
    return {color:0xFFAE00, textSelectedColor:0xa59999}; <-- This sucessfully sets the selected text color of the rows that meet the condition
    Unfortunatly many of the other data grid styles don't seem to work with this method, specifially one of the other ones I need, textRolloverColor. Basically I need the text to be set to the same color on those specific rows as they are when you select them.
    return {color:0xFFAE00, textSelectedColor:0xa59999, textRolloverColor:0xa59999:}; <-- The rollover text color is not set.
    Any ideas? Thanks.

  • Where to set creationPolicy and borderThickness for s:Group?

    I'm porting a Flex 3.1 application to Flex4.5.
    Here is the Flex 3.1 code:
    <mx:Canvas creationPolicy="auto" borderThickness="0" ...>
         <mx:HBox >
              <mx:Image .... />
         </mx:HBox >
    </mx:Canvas >
    This is the Flex 4.5 code I got so far:
    <s:Group ...>
        <s:layout >         
             <s:HorizontalLayout ..... />
        </s:layout >    <mx:Image ...  />
    </s:Group>
     ~I could not find the place to set createPolicy and borderThickness with Flex 4's s:Group. Is Flex 3's mx:Canvas equivalen to s:Group in Flex4?
    I know s:Panel has the creationPolicy, but I do not want to use Panel. Any suggestions? Thanks.

    Group's aren't skinnable.  I think the intent is that they're job is  simply to manage layout, so if you want a border, you wrap your group in  another component like BorderContainer.
    As for  creationPolicy, I'm guessing that you're Canvas was being used in one of  the mx Navigator classes (TabNavigator, Accordion, etc.).  You can wrap  your BorderContainer in a NavigatorContent component to manage creation  policy.
    <s:TabNavigator>
        <s:NavigatorContent>
             <s:BorderContainer>
                 <s:Group>
                 <s:Group>
             </s:BorderContainer>
        <s:NavigatorContent>
    </s:TabNavigator>

  • BC SETS creation and usage for sap mm  point of view

    Hi All,
    Need Information About  BC SETS  creation and usage from sap mm point of view.
    Thanks in advance for sap mm forum guys.
    Regards.
    Parameshwar.

    Hi,
    Customizing settings can be collected by processes into Business Configuration Sets (BC Sets). BC Sets make Customizing more transparent by documenting and analyzing the Customizing settings. They can also be used for a group rollout, where the customizing settings are bundled by the group headquarters and passed on in a structured way to its subsidiaries.
    BC Sets are provided by SAP for selected industry sectors, and customers can also create their own.
    When a BC Set is created, values and combinations of values are copied from the original Customizing tables into the BC Set and can be copied into in the tables, views and view clusters in the customer system. The BC Sets are always transported into the customer system in which Customizing is performed.
    Advantages of using BC Sets:
    1.     Efficient group rollout.
    2.     Industry sector systems are easier to create and maintain.
    3.     Customizing can be performed at a business level.
    4.     Change Management is quicker and safer.
    5.     Upgrade is simpler.
    To create BC sets follow the below step:
    Choose Tools ® Customizing ® Business Configuration Sets® Maintenance in the SAP
    menu, or enter the transaction code SCPR3 in the command field.
    Choose Bus.Conf.Set ® Create.
