[SunHELP] PROBLEM WITH MULTIPLE ADDRESS PER INTERFACE

[Tom Jones]

Have you checked the spelling of Scratch in your /etc/hosts file?
(assuming you've made an entry in hosts for a hostname of
Scratch with the IP address of 192.168.0.36)

It appears that the IP address isn't obtainable from your hosts file which
is why you get all zeroes for the IP address in ifconfig output.
