As mentioned, I have a minimal install for my OpenSolaris test machines. Evidently I am missing something quite important for getting a host network up and running:

# ./vnic_setup.sh 0:1:4a:f2:31:34
./vnic_setup.sh: line 42: /usr/lib/vna: No such file or directory

Hmm, I can either load the iso and get the real files or learn how to work with the NAT mode.So either I do a complete reinstall or I figure how to get just a couple of files over. Sounds like I should learn about NAT anyway.

With two machines and NAT, they are both getting the same address. I could use the Internal Network option, but I'm still going to have to reinstall. Hmm, when I do a machine, I select Core Configure and add the following:

BIND DNS Name server and tools

Time to find what I need to add. First we need to look in the ISO image:

[tdh@warlock ~]> sudo lofiadm -a /zoo/isos/x86/snv85/solarisdvd.iso 
/dev/lofi/1
[tdh@warlock ~]> sudo mount -F hsfs /dev/lofi/1 /mnt
[tdh@warlock Product]> cd /mnt/Solaris_11/Product/
[tdh@warlock Product]> grep lib/vna */pkgmap
SUNWcsu/pkgmap:1 f none usr/lib/vna 0555 root bin 12592 13767 1204942578

Hmm, wait, I need to find that on my host system and not the guest machine. D'Oh!

[tdh@warlock lib]> uname -a
SunOS warlock 5.11 snv_73 i86pc i386 i86pc
[tdh@warlock lib]> sudo lofiadm -d /zoo/isos/x86/snv7
snv79/ 

I have the DVD, but 73 is ancient! But I'll check:

[tdh@warlock Product]> grep lib/vna SUNWcsu/pkgmap
[tdh@warlock Product]> 

Ugh, the biggest hassle is that I use this machine as a Sun Ray Server. Okay, time for a reinstall!
