Chris asked me if I connect through a NAT, proxy or firewall.
But I connect through my ISP DHCP server. So consequently (?), I =
shouldn=B4t
need to write anything in my /etc/hosts ?
=20
The content of /etc/hosts is:=20
::1              localhost    localhost
127.0.0.1    localhost    localhost
=20
=20
ifconfig -a gives me:
=20
le0: flags=3D8863<UP, BROADCAST, NOTRAILERS, RUNNING SIMPLEX, MULTICAST> =
mtu
1500
adress: 08:00:20:72:80:b6
media: Ethernet autoselect (10BaseT)
status:active
inet 213.114.236.99 netmask 0xffffff80 broadcast 213.114.236.127
inet6 fe80:a00:20ff:fe72:80b6%le0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x1
=20
hme0:flags=3D8263<UP, BROADCAST, NOTRAILERS, RUNNING ALLMULTI, =
MULTICAST> mtu
1500
CAPABILITIES=3D66<TCP4SUM, UDP4SUM, TCP4CSUM,_Rx, UDP4CSUM_Rx>
enabeled=3D0
adress=3D08:00:20:72:80:b6
media:Ethernet autoselect (none)
status: no carrier
inet 0.0.0.0 netmask 0xff000000 broadcast 255.255.255.255
inet6 fe80::a00:20ff:fe72:80b6%hme0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x2
=20
lo0:..... and so on.
=20
>From the above, I believe I see that le0 is the active one, and that =
hme0 is
a inactive card with more capabilities/options.
But apart from that info, all I really see is that its working as it =
should,
right?
=20
=20
I was again loking for any way of shutting down the IPV6-support, since =
the
pkg_add command returned with what I understand is a IPV6 adress report.
However, I couldn't find any way in rc.conf.
=20
So this is the weird thing; I can ping internet using www-adress, I can =
ping
usin 123.456.123...-type adresses. I get my date set throgh the =
ntp=3Dyes
command in rc.conf (and ntp uses internet for communicating date-time
info?).
When I ping my hostname (sparc20 or sparc20.) I get: "cannot resolve
"sparc20" (host name lookup failure)
When I try pinging 127.0.0.1 my Sparc answers perfectly.
=20
Ideas anyone?=20
=20
=20
=20
Cheers/Magnus
