I have 2 Dell Optiplex GX1's what have integrated
3com WuOL 10/100 network cards. I am running
Solaris 2.6 on these machines but am having problems
getting the network cards detected.

I am not sure what extension the /etc/hostname.xxx should have
for these card.
I have tried le0 but to no avail, does any one have any ideas on
what is should be.

thanks in advance
Ross

it's a shot - try .hme0 (HundredMegEthernet) - that's what the standard 3Com
10/100 card (3C905B) uses.

Good luck
Steve

Well unfortunately that failed as well. Any one else have any ideas
that might get me out of a jam

Try elxl0 - That one's on Solaris 7, not sure about 2.6. Here's the the
/kernel/drv/elxl.conf file:

#

#
==> # Driver.conf file for the 3Com 3C90x
#
# To force full duplex operation, uncomment the following line:
#full-duplex=1;
#
# To force half duplex operation, uncomment the following line:
#full-duplex=0;
#
# To force 10Mbps operation, uncomment the following line:
#speed=10;
#
# To force 100Mbps operation, uncomment the following line:
#speed=100;

There is a man page for 'elx' but not one for 'elxl'
