[SunHELP] Newbie Ultra 2, How do i know what the ether net de vice name should be?

[-Mark-]

Take a look at your /var/adm/messages or dmesg.
There is usually some reference to the hardware as it
is initilized/checked.

Oh, by the way. I have two Ultra2s, one has hme0, the
other le0.  Depend on when it was manufactured I
guess.
