Re: solaris 2.6

[Philip Smith <pfs at cisco.com>]

Have you checked what is in /etc/nsswitch.conf?

Don't know about the static routes - I'd imagine you need to edit one of 
the files in the /etc/rc2.d directory. Probably something like S69inet? Do 
you want to add lots of static routes, or just a default route? If the 
latter, /etc/defaultrouter is the file you want.
