Hopefully, this won't be necessary much longer. Once it obtains the DHCP lease, NWAM should also ensure that nsswitch.conf is updated for you; but there's a race condition that occurs on boot that currently prevents that from happening, documented in CR 6584967[1]. I integrated a fix for that bug into nevada today, which means it should be available in build 94. -renee [1] http://bugs.opensolaris.org/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6584967 _______________________________________________ indiana-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/indiana-discuss
