Smf / sometimes does not configure network interfaces in single-user mode?

From http://groups.yahoo.com/group/solarisx86/message/14785
When booting into single user mode, I often get a message
on the console
t_optmgmt: System error: Cannot assign requested addressand only the loopback interface is configured (lo0 inet, and lo0 inet6).
The system's dnet0 interface is not plumbed any more. Configuration
for the dnet0 network interface is via a static ip address; hostname
in /etc/hostname.dnet0, and and ip v4 address for that hostname in
/etc/hosts. This was a Solaris 10 x86 system, but the same problem
has also been observed on Solaris 10 sparc, and the hme0
interface.
svcs -x in single-user mode reports no problems.
Changing to multi-user mode by typing Ctrl-D still does not
configure the real network interface.
One thing that I've noticed is that smf's log file
/etc/svc/volatile/network-physical:default.log
is missing, when the nic interface was not configured.
It seems that the problem with unconfigured network interfaces
does not happen when I boot directly into multi-user mode.
Why isn't the physical interface plumbed and configured when
booting into single user mode on S10 b69?

while booting the OS said NFS+ version 4 was detected and the router IP is automatically configured or there is no specific individual router IP, says something like this
# ifconfig -a:

I have modified the files and checked them:

3. etc/hostname6.rtls0

4. etc/netmasks
172.19.16.255 255.255.240.0
I don't know the network IP so i just write this, can anyone tell me how to find the network IP
5. etc/defaultrouter
172.19.31.254
I made this file and wrote the default gateway IP address, can anyone tell me how to find default router IP since the NFS+ version 4 auto detects or auto assigns router IP
6. etc/resolv.conf
domain myhost.com
nameserver: 172.19.16.12
nameserver: 172.19.16.13
still domain name has't been set, i just wrote this, can anyone tell me how to find the domain name or create one. also the name server is just a fake, but how to find one. If i will be connecting my laptop to various IP whereever i go, so do i need to configure network setting again and again ? isn't there any auto network configuration so that i can connect internet where ever i go and let the system auto configure network settings like in windows XP auto IP configuration detect.
7. etc/nsswitch.conf
in this i can't see "hosts: files" but i could see rest of the details. so I inserted "hosts: files dns" in the third line and saved.
I ran the following command in the terminal to find the details:
#ypmatch host-name hosts
ypmatch: the domainname hasn't been set on this machine
(how to set domain name can anyone tell me?)
#move/etc/netmasks: not found
#uname -n
HOME
#cat/etc/nsswitch.conf
cat/etc/nsswitch.conf: not found
#domain name
domain: not found
#ypwhich
ypwhich: the domainname has'nt been set to this machine
#nismatch nameserver-name hosts.org-dir
hosts.org-dir: Error in accessing NIS+ cold file.......is NIS+ installed?
actually during installation i selected DNS type for network giving a wrong nameserver and domain got skipped later
#getent ipnodes dns (no response)
so all these things i did and found by seeing the forum guidelines. I can see the network connection has receivinh and sent packets seems to be working but can't browse internet, also can't ping a website.
if anyone had the same problem but found the answer than kindly let me know. I am new to solaris but i am trying my best.
awaiting reply from gurus
bye for now.................

Can not book from DVD or Single user mode

Hello,
In a bit of a pickle here. I have an ibook g3, 10gb hard drive, 512mb ram, cd/dvd combo drive and an airport card.
When i book up the system I get the broken folder icon (the flashing ? mark) I have tried to get the system to boot from a DVD of Mac OS X Tiger. However no matter how long I hold the C button down it will never even try to boot from the DVD.
Also no matter how long I hold down Command + S it will never go into the single user mode. However I know that the keyboard is good because I have been able to reset the PRAM with CommandoptionP and R and I get the normal two chimes. No luck.
I have reset the PMU out of desperation. I have even installed a new keyboard from a working ibook.
I know it would be easier to just buy a new mac but this isnt an option for me due to money issues so I want to fix this system. Also I do not have a double ended firewire cable for target disk mode.
My question is what do you do when you cant get past the broken folder and when it does not even try to load the Mac DVD?
HELP ME PLEASE!

Have you tried booting into Safe Mode? If not, I suggest that you give it a try. This will take quite awhile longer than a normal startup because it does a file check and repair of the hard disk.
If this works you will see your normal desktop. Once completely started up in Safe Mode, try to restart normally, and go to Applications > Utilities > Disk Utility. Click on the top hard drive icon in the left sidebar and note the S.M.A.R.T. status at the bottom right of the pane. What does it say?
Select the named boot volume in the left sidebar, ("Macintosh HD" unless you've renamed it). What is the hard drive capacity and how much space remains available on it? Repair permissions on it.
See if you are able to do a little hard drive maintenance to help things out.

Clone of a VM does not propogate network interfaces

Hi,
I am looking for a help. When I am cloning a VM, I am seeing that network interfaces are not getting propogated to the new cloned VM. I am using B200 M2 blades.
I am cloning a VM with RHEL 6.3.
Appreciate any help on this.
Thanks,
Santhosh

Hi,
There is an issue with RHEL 6.3 OS while cloning. Following two steps have to be done before cloning a RHEL 6 VM.
1. Remove “HWADDR” from /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0.
2. Remove /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules file.
Thanks,

OSX will not start after reboot from single user mode

Hello,
Yesterday my iBook G4 was only starting in BASH mode. I've looked at discussions describing Kernel Panic and have followed the advice posted to the following post:
http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=1553062#1553062
When I reboot I get past the language setup and the boot progress screen/progress bar gets almost complete before going to a continuously stalling/reloading blue screen.
When I try the command:
rm /var/db/.AppleSetupDone
described in one of the responses I get a 'No such file or directory' message
I assume that as when I try:
cd /System/Library/CoreServices/Setup\ Assistant.app/Contents/MacOS
It returns '-rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 58912 16 Aug 21:10 Setup Assistant'
it is the file that is missing.
As the discussion thread I was following seemed to go off on a bunch of other tangents (and was completed), I am hoping somebody might have suggestions for my specific problem under this new discussion.

Welcome To  Discussions Kongxyz!
It will help if you first post some background info.
"...only starting in BASH mode."
Explain exactly what was happening, and what the screen displayed.
Exactly which model iBook G4 is it?
What is the Processor speed?
What size is the Hard Drive, and how much space is available?
How much RAM is installed, and is it original or added?
Which version number of Panther 10.3.x is installed
What peripherals do you have connected? A keyboard, mouse, printer, external drive or modem, router, etc?
What happened between the last time the iBook started successfully, and when it didn't?
Have you made any changes, like upgrading the system, updated or installed any applications or programs, etc?
Have there been any unusual occurences, like freezes, crashes, power outages, etc?
Are you able to startup from the system install disc to run Disk Repair?
Have you run Repair Permissions?
Instructions posted below.
Is the Mac shutdown overnight, or does it run 24/7?
Have you ever run any routine Maintenance procedures?
THESE ARE THE STEPS FOR USING DISK UTILITY TO REPAIR YOUR HD
1.Insert the System Install disk, Mac OS X CD-ROM disk, or Restore DVD disk, then restart the computer while holding the C key. Use the System disk, of the OS, that is currently installed.
2.Once started up from CD or DVD, on the Menubar at the top of the screen, choose Disk Utility from the Installer contextual menu.
Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from disc to access Disk Utility.
3.Click the First Aid tab.
4.Click the disclosure triangle to the left of the hard drive icon to display the names of your hard disk volumes and partitions.
5.Select your Mac OS X volume, if necessary.
6.Click Repair. If DU reports errors it has fixed, re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported.
7.Repeat steps 5 & 6, but select the Hard Drive this time. It's usually the first listed with the manufacturer's model number. Make note of the S.M.A.R.T. status.
8.When finished, select Quit Disk Utility from the Installer menu.
9.Select Quit Installer from the Installer menu.
10.In the resulting pop-up window, choose restart.
11.After the computer has restarted, you can eject the CD.
TO REPAIR PERMISSIONS ON THE STARTUP DISK
1.Open Disk Utility, located in Applications/Utilities, and select the startup disk in the left column.
2.Click First Aid.
3.Click Verify Disk Permissions to test permissions or Repair Disk Permissions to test and repair permissions. (I never "Verify". Just run "Repair".)
Rerun RP until the only messages reported, are listed here Spurious Permissions Errors Using: 10.3.x, authored by Michael Conniff.
When "Repair Permissions" is complete. Quit "Disk Utility".

IBook Mac OS 10.3.9 not booting, even crashing in single-user mode

Yeah so about 2 weeks ago my iBook started crashing, then wouldn't properly re-boot. Gradually, it would start crashing after being on for less and less time until now it gets just past the apple symbol and then freezes on a blue screen.
I've been using the online help but now it's even freezing during single-user mode, meaning i can't even perform fcsk!! I can't even boot up on the Mac OS X CD to re-install the OS. Anyone got any idea what's wrong or what I can do? Thanks, Rob

What, exactly, is preventing you from starting up from the Mac OS X install disk?
Have you added any RAM yourself? You might try taking it out to see if that helps. You might also try to run the Apple Hardware Test. Depending on which bundle of install disks you got, it may be on the Mac OS X install disk or it may be a separate CD of it's own. It should be marked "AHT" and a version number on the disk. Put that disk in the drive, restart and hold down on the "option" key. This will give you a Startup Manager that should allow you to select the hardware test and continue (click the right arrow to continue). If you can't even get that far, then you probably have a hardware failure and you'll need to take your iBook in for service. What is your location?

JET install: ERROR: Unable to configure network interface Exiting to shell

Using SUNWjet v4.4.4 I'm trying to build a server using update 5 x86 which seems
to work with one notable exception. The JET server and the build server do not
reside on the same subnet. In order to get around not being able use PXE boot
to boot the build server I'm booting from DVD after making the following modifications
to the grub menu entry:
kernel /I86PC.Solaris_10-1/multiboot kernel/unix - install nowin -B
install_config=x.x.x.x:/opt/SUNWjet,
sysid_config=x.x.x.x:/opt/SUNWjet/Clients/testclient,
install_media=x.x.x.x:/export/install/media/s10u5-x86,
install_boot=x.x.x.x:/export/install/media/s10u5-x86/boot
This seems to kick off the installer however it fails to bring up the network interface:
SunOS release
Configuring devices
Solaris Interactive Text ( Console Session )
ERROR: Unable to configure network interface Exiting to shell
# ifconfig bge0 x.x.x.x up netmask 255.255.255.0
# route add default x.x.x.1
# exit
Using RPC
Installation continues without any errors
It seems that I'm forced to bring up the interface manually each time.
This is what the template looks like:
base_config_ClientArch=i86pc
base_config_ClientEther=XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX
base_config_ClientOS=s10u5-x86

base_config_sysidcfg_security_policy=NONE
base_config_sysidcfg_protocol_ipv6=no
base_config_sysidcfg_default_route=x.x.x.1
I've also tried setting the following:
base_config_sysidcfg_network_interface=PRIMARY
vs
base_config_sysidcfg_network_interface=bge0
I don't mind doing this manually but of course I would much rather have it work automatically.

Try giving more network interface settings in the sysidcfg settings:
network_interface=value {primary hostname=host_name
                          default_route=ip_address or NONE
                          ip_address=ip_address
                          netmask=netmask
                          protocol_ipv6=yes_or_no}

Can I convert a proxy for a class that does not has any interfaces?

Can I convert a proxy for a class that does not has any interfaces?

Hi.
I can hardly understand your question: what do you want your proxy (what kind of proxy?) to be converted into?
All I can tell you is the following: Proxies created using java.lang.reflect.Proxy can only be created using an interface. This interface has to be implemented by the proxied object. So: no interface, no java.lang.reflect.Proxy.
Bye.

Windows 7 does not detect network hardware

Using Boot Camp, I installed Windows 7.
After restarting the computer it does not detect network hardware.
So I cannot connect to my Wifi.
What should I do?

Did you download and install the Windows Support software? It was the first menu item when you ran Bootcamp Assistant. If not, run Bootcamp Assistant again and select the menu item to download the Windows Support software. Read the Bootcamp Installation Guide. http://www.apple.com/support/bootcamp/

Mail sometimes does not sync read state?

Mail sometimes does not sync read state? If I read the mail from OSX it's not marked as read on my ipad. It's random so sometimes it does sometimes it doesnt. It's really annoying, how to fix?

When you guys say turn ON and OFF, are you referring to "show in IMAP" checkbox in the "Labels" tab in gmail? As superwhatever mentioned, Apple initially told me to make sure these are showing so that Mail.app picks them up. If I uncheck "All Mail" and "Important" wont that just mkae Mail.app skip downloading thosemessages that are in Important and All Mail? Instead shouldn't Mail.app's "Inbox" be set to also incorporate those message that are in Important and All Mail? This was so much of a headach for me back when the original problem surface that I just stopped using Mail.app and purchased Mailmate. Since then though, I'm missing certain key functions that Mail.app has and want to take another stab at resolving this.
On my iphone it shows that I have 18 unread messages for my company account, while in Mail.app it shows only 2 unread. The other 16 are found in "Important." how does this get fixed?

EA2700 - Your Computer does not have Networking Capability?!

I'm kind of a novice when it comes to networking and computer. I receently purchased a EA2700 for the house. I've managed to plug everything in the proper locations, got everything going and internet working on my PC with a wired connection. Everything was going smoothly until i put the setup CD in to setup the router. I ran setup and at the loading bar (0%) an error came up saying that "Your Computer Does Not Have Networking Capability". I'm using Nvidia nForce that came with the motherboard (to my knowledge at least). I can go on websites and also get to 192.168.1.1 BUT I just can't seem to get pass that networking capability error. I've also tried to update the Nvidia nForce driver but doing that caused my internet to not work at all. So I just rolled back to the previous driver which could get me online at least.
If anyone has any idea how I can fix this, please let me know cause I'm out of ideas and not quite sure what I need to do at this point. Thank you very much in advance.
