I am running a newer version of FreeBSD, thus the change from /etc/sysconf to /etc/rc.conf. What is the output of ifconfig -a on the solaris box? What is the IP and broadcast on the NT box? On the FreeBSD box, what is in /etc/resolv.conf, /etc/host.conf, and /etc/hosts? Look at the man pages on these files. For my local net, I have hosts first in /etc/host.conf and each of the 192.168.xxx.xxx machines in /etc/hosts. This prevents FreeBSD from going to the nameserver for name resolution before looking at the local hosts. Can you ping the solaris box with 'ping 192.168.0.2' or whatever? In /etc/rc.conf, I have: ############################################################## ### Network configuration sub-section ###################### ############################################################## ### Basic network options: ### hostname="celebris" # Set this! nisdomainname="NO" # Set to NIS domain if using NIS (or NO). firewall="NO" # Set to firewall type or NO for none. tcp_extensions="YES" # Allow RFC1323 & RFC1544 extensions (or NO). network_interfaces="de0 lo0" # List of network interfaces (lo0 is loopback). ifconfig_de0="inet 192.168.1.3 netmask 255.255.255.0" ifconfig_lo0="inet 127.0.0.1" # default loopback device configuration. ### Network daemon (miscellaneous) & NFS options: ### syslogd_enable="YES" # Run syslog daemon (or NO). syslogd_flags="" # Flags to syslogd (if enabled). inetd_flags="" # Optional flags to inetd (always enabled). named_enable="NO" # Run named, the DNS server (or NO). named_flags="" # Flags to named (if enabled). kerberos_server_enable="NO" # Run a kerberos master server (or NO). rwhod_enable="NO" # Run the rwho daemon (or NO). amd_enable="NO" # Run amd service with $amd_flags (or NO). amd_flags="-a /net -c 1800 -k i386 -d my.domain -l syslog /host /etc/amd.map" nfs_client_enable="NO" # This host is an NFS client (or NO). nfs_server_enable="YES" # This host is an NFS server (or NO). weak_mountd_authentication="NO" # Running PCNFSD / other non-root nfsd (or NO). nfs_reserved_port_only="NO" # Provide NFS only on secure port (or NO). rpc_lockd_enable="NO" # Run NFS rpc.lockd (*broken!*) if nfs_server. rpc_statd_enable="YES" # Run NFS rpc.statd if nfs_server (or NO). portmap_enable="YES" # Run the portmapper service (or NO). portmap_flags="" # Flags to portmap (if enabled). xtend_enable="NO" # Run the X-10 power controller daemon. xtend_flags="" # Flags to xtend (if enabled). ### Network Time Services options: ### timed_enabled="NO" # Run the time daemon (or NO). timed_flags="" # Flags to timed (if enabled). ntpdate_enable="NO" # Run the ntpdate to sync time (or NO). ntpdate_flags="bigben.cac.washington.edu" # Flags to ntpdate (if enabled). xntpd_enable="NO" # Run xntpd Network Time Protocol (or NO). xntpd_flags="" # Flags to xntpd (if enabled). tickadj_enable="NO" # Run tickadj (or NO). tickadj_flags="-Aq" # Flags to tickadj (if enabled). # Network Information Services (NIS) options: ### nis_client_enable="NO" # We're an NIS client (or NO) nis_client_flags="" # Flags to ypbind (if enabled). nis_ypset_enable="NO" # Run ypset at boot time (or NO). nis_ypset_flags="" # Flags to ypset (if enabled). nis_server_enable="NO" # We're an NIS server (or NO) nis_server_flags="" # Flags to ypserv (if enabled). nis_ypxfrd_enable="NO" # Run rpc.ypxfrd at boot time (or NO). nis_ypxfrd_flags="" # Flags to rpc.ypxfrd (if enabled). nis_yppasswdd_enable="NO" # Run rpc.yppasswdd at boot time (or NO). nis_yppasswdd_flags="" # Flags to rpc.yppasswdd (if enabled). ### Network routing options: ### defaultrouter="NO" # Set to default gateway (or NO). static_routes="" # Set to static route list (or leave empty). gateway_enable="YES" # Set to YES if this host will be a gateway. router_enable="NO" # Set to YES to enable a routing daemon. router="routed" # Name of routing daemon to use if enabled. router_flags="-q" # Flags for routing daemon. mrouted_enable="NO" # Do multicast routing (see /etc/mrouted.conf) ipxgateway_enable="NO" # Set to YES to enable IPX routing. ipxrouted_enable="NO" # Set to YES to run the IPX routing daemon. ipxrouted_flags="" # Flags for IPX routing daemon. arpproxy_all="" # obsolete kernel option ARP_PROXY_ALL equiv.
