# 1

have you enabled a firewall on host A? Solaris 10 comes with IPFilter, if you enable that you wouldn't be able to ping the box.

to check the status of the ipfilter:

svcs |grep ipfilter

as well as

ifconfig <interface-name> modlist

if the modlist shows pfil the ipfilter is enabled on that interface.

Sounds like you don't have a default route or netmask is not set right. Could you show me the output of:1. netstat -rn2. cat /etc/defaultroute3. ifconfig -a4. cat /etc/netmasksMessage was edited by: root@rci.rogers.com
