Hi All, Thanks go to Graham Wood, Vlade and D Collier for showing me the light where network masks are concerned. The syntax I require in /etc/netmasks should be 10.213.94.192 255.255.255.192 Cheers Joe ---originally--- > Started a new job yesterday with some nice new toys so here we go. > I've got a couple of V880s; Solaris 8, soon to be running VCS, Oracle plus > a couple of other bits. > In these V880s there are 2 QFEs.
