[SunHELP] connecting sunpci & workstation

[Tom Jones]

A static route needs to be added for both the Solaris and the Windows sides.  Since the
SunPCI card is sharing the network connection with the workstation, this is required.

I can email you my script from the Sun side and my batch file from the Windows side
if you want to see them.
