[SunHELP] Unable to access internet from solaris 8 system...

[Chanaka Mendis]

Are you trying to access the internet using a (Netscape Browser 
Settings ) proxy server or Direct.
If you are trying to access using a direct then either you should have 
registered IP addrees on the sun machine or you need to do a IP NAT on 
your router/Firewall.
