Apparently, Sol10 got a bit more strict. The /etc/inet/ipnodes file was the culprit. Thanks to all for their responses and to David, Ruben, Darren, Dave, and Tim who had the correct answer. I took the extra entries from ipnodes and moved them to hosts then linked ipnodes to hosts. Done. Thanks to the best answer list on the net. Rick Original Question ================= OS: Sol10-200503 System: Ultra 60 I am definitely missing something here. I wanted to change the IP of my workstation so I modified my entry in /etc/hosts to the new IP, rebooted and it is still using the old IP. This has to be some Sol10 thing or I am just still drunk from last night. /etc/hostname.ce0 contains my hostname /etc/nodename contains my hostname uname -n produces my hostname /etc/nsswitch.conf has 'files dns' for the hosts: entry /etc/hosts has my hostname with the new IP (not duplicated) What am I missing?
