Same here the last time I tried (NetBSD 1.3). I seem to have everything set
up correctly, but no dice... nothing which requires a network connection
(even X clients) will work.

Out of curiousity, I'm wondering what version(s) of the Solaris libraries
are being used by those who can and can't get this to work? I am running
Solaris 2.3 libs, but had the feeling that most of the successes were from
people running 2.4 libs.

Could we have a version dependence somewhere in the SVR4 emulation?
