Re: Sun Netra X1 Networking
Daniel,
Through searching this list by way of Google (after the local search did
not work), I found my answer.
The problem seems to be that both the dmfe and tulip modules are being
loaded. I can solve this problem by issuing the following commands
(using sudo):
modprobe -r dmfe
modprobe -r tulip
modprobe tulip
dhclient eth1
My next question is how do get this done automatically at system start.
I thought adding the following to modules.conf would be my ticket:
pre-install tulip modprobe -r dmfe; modprobe -r tulip
install module tulip
post-install tulip dhclient eth1
This does not yield the results that I want. I am not familiar with the
modules.conf file, but based on it's man page it seemed to be what I
needed. Is there something that I can do to unload both the dmfe and
tulip modules, reload the tulip module, and then get a dynamic IP for
eth1 (all at system start)?
I am new to Linux (I have been playing with it for a bit over a year,
and using it seriously for a few months). This is my first journey into
the world of Sun servers and the SPARC architecture as well.
Thank you for your help!

Chris,
Do you have the latest Flash PROM? (patch 111952 for more info)
Does it work with Solaris? (you could try a Nexenta CD)
Cheers,
