[SunHELP] HELP -- How to Setup a Headless Server on a E450

[Joseph Bruzzo]

I am trying to configure a Headless server.  I have a Cisco AS2511-RJ
and a SUN Enterprise E-450.  Everytime I telnet to the server from another
computer on the network

telnet <ip-addr> <portnum>

This allows me to connect to the server's openboot prompt.

The following changes have been make in the openboot prompt:
 setenv auto-boot?=false
 setenv input-device=ttya
 setenv output-device=ttya

As Root:
 kbd -a disable

But when booting the system through the console I able to connect
but when I type boot or boot -s or boot -r it looks like it's
working but it freezes at the message below.

 Boot device: disk:a  File and args:
 SunOS Release 5.9 Version Generic 64-bit
 Copyright 1983-2002 Sun Microsystems, Inc.  All rights reserved.
 Use is subject to license terms.
 |

When I connect the keyboard and monitor to the system the server
boots up with no problems.

Does anyone have an howto document for a SUN E450 setup

thanks
jeb
