[SunRescue] Solaris 8 and dhcp

[Hatle, Steven J.]

Al,

man ifconfig should tell you- but here's a quick (from memory) summary.
Double-check the syntax against the man page.

plumb the interface (if not already)

ifconfig hme1 plumb

Then

ifconfig hme1 dhcp start

you can also do 

ifconfig hme1 dhcp status

to see what's going on.

Hope that helps.

Steve

OK, I'm probably being particularly schtupid, but.....


I cannot figure out how to set up hme1 on my ultra 5 as a dhcp client, and 
more frustratingly, can't find an applicable man page.


Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
