Virtually all other OS's I've tried, probably 10-12 or so, have had provision to quickly and easily setup a static network.... and they worked straigh away. Installing from oi-b147... once installed the icon on right upper of gnome window display has dialog for setting up a static network... but when I follow it, I get a network that even says its connected... but it goes no where... can't ping anything even on home lan. Why can't I just simply ifconfig a network out of thin air as in linux (long as loopback is already done). ifconfig <device> nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn up And have that device come up with that IP and work. I don't understand why it is difficult... But would also like to see in steps... a tried and true method to get a static IP. DHCP is just a pain in the butt in home lan. Is there really no simple and quick method... if so, why is that? _______________________________________________ OpenIndiana-discuss mailing list OpenIndiana-discuss@openindiana.org http://openindiana.org/mailman/listinfo/openindiana-discuss _______________________________________________ OpenIndiana-discuss mailing list OpenIndiana-discuss@openindiana.org http://openindiana.org/mailman/listinfo/openindiana-discuss
