the original problem: I have followed the instructions in the Advanced installation guide to create an 'install server' and have gotten to the point of adding a client, but I get this when I try to add a client # ./add_install_client matorc sun4u Error: Ethernet number for matorc.mathesoninc.com not found. I am using DNS instead of NIS or any other name service, so I am not sure why it is looking for an ethernet number or how I can satisfy that request nslookup is able to tell what matorc's ip address is so I know dns is working fine do I need to create an ethers file or what? ---------------------------------------- The right answer was syntax ./add_install_client -i 198.99.999.94 -e 08:00:20:0e:e9:89 -s hymir:/export/hymir/raid4/jumpstart lynx sun4c using the -e argument Thanks to all who responded alan _______________________________________________ sunmanagers mailing list sunmanagers@sunmanagers.org http://www.sunmanagers.org/mailman/listinfo/sunmanagersReceived on Mon Jun 23 10:49:44 2003
