Jumpstart: add_install_client failed with mal-formed ethernet address

Hello all:

I just set up a Solaris 9 and 10 jumpstart server. I can jump sparc machines just fine. But when I attempt to jump a x86 machine I receive an error when executing the add_install_client command. My syntax for add_install_client is below.

./add_install_client -d -e 00093D146999 \

-c 10.10.9.94:/data/js/jumpstart_sol10 \

-p 10.10.9.94:/data/js/jumpstart_sol10/Sysidcfg/Solaris_10 gunns i86pc

The errror I'm receiving is: mal-formed Ethernet address: 00093D146999

Note: This is a sol10 machine(v240)

Thanks for your help.

The ethernet address is usually specified as 6 numbers separated by :I suspect you want00:09:3D:14:69:99

Hello All:The solution was to use colons and to use lower case letters when specifying the mac address. Ezra
