You are misunderstanding my question.

For DHCP to work, there must be some device or server that provides IP addresses to its DHCP client. Usually, a router is the DHCP server, at least on home and other small networks.

The simplest way would be for you to run /usr/sbin/sys-unconfig and provide suitable answers when the system reboots.

Run "man sys-unconfig" for details.

Is your router actually configured to supply IP addresses with DHCP ?

THis happend:
I clicked on "Shut Down Computer", but it returned on the LogIn screen.
And because i didn't had time, i just switch off the Power...

Now, when i started my SolarisPC, it just doesn't wants to go on the internet.

All Confirgurations are still there, no changes are made (RTLS0, DHCP, Router, Subnetmask)..
I logged into my router, but everything was the same...
But just no internet....

Looks like the routing settings have been lost.

Have a look at /etc/resolv.conf and /etc/nsswitch.conf

resolv.conf data: nameserver 192.168.2.1

nsswitch.conf data: it points towards: /dev/oss/softoss0/mix0

Huh?

What do you mean "in the file" ?

Can you post the result of these commands:

Code:
ls -l /etc/nsswitch.conf
cat /etc/nsswitch.conf
