The sparc station went down due to the power outage.. I brought the system up but the eathernet card doesn't seem to be working. the message im getting is "sparc2 hme:SUN,hme0: No response from Eathernet network: Link down -- cable problem?". I'm able to ping the localhost, but can't ping any other ip... I've changed the cable also...

Any help will be greately appreciated

Does ifconfig hme0 plumb and ifconfig hme0 up make any difference?

Also if you do

prtconf | egrep "hme|le"

do you get either
le, instance #0
hme, instance #0

like that or do you get a (driver not attached) message after it?

Also have you tried a stop+A and sync, or a boot -r ?

The only other thing I can suggest is to restore a backup if your enet card isn't b0rked.

Hi

Pleae try sys-unconfig.

After it system will detect your lan card.

I think this will solve the problem.
