What do you need NICs for simh? What are you running?
Solaris 10 zone. klh10 and some of my VMs need dedicated NICs in order to function properly with DECnet.

Get 11 if you can. CrossBow makes this SOOOOOOOOOOOO much easier. :)
I'm using a SPARC. Solaris 11 dropped support for UltraSPARC III.
That SUCKS! Ok, carry on as you were. :)
It really does suck. :( The sun fire V480 is a great piece of hardware.
Indeed it is. I hope OpenSXCE gets off the ground in a meaningful way.

Historically, if you want your host system to be able to communicate with the guest simh system on most *nix platforms, the simplest way to get that working is to dedicate a NIC to the simh instance and connect it to the same LAN as your host system.
Alternative approaches which were always more complex and not available on all *nix platforms involved the use of tap devices and internal bridging configured on the host system. Doing this has completely different recipes on each platform and possibly on different versions of the same platform. With versions of simh 3.9 and beyond, Windows system can simply share the host systems NIC and also communicate directly with it. Some *nix platforms have support for libvdeplug. These platforms can also be configured to avoid the addition of a dedicated NIC for the simh instance. The 0readme_ethernet.txt file in the simh source distribution describes the known ways which have been used to address this issue on various platforms.

I have no idea. You guys have dug up this info....
Most Solaris folk aren't really accustomed to just rebooting their
machines.
So I guess I fit in? I don't even like rebooting NT 4. ;)
I suggest that you make the change to /etc/system now so you don't forget when you go to shutdown to install the NICs or you'll end up with multiple reboots at that time....
Then again, if your system has trouble rebooting after installing the NICs you won't know if it has to do with the newly added hardware or the change to the OS configuration file .
I'll let Brian be the guinea pig then. ;)
Added to /etc/system. It appears to have worked. Idling works.
I like to test one change at a time.

Hello!
Okay. Good then.
Yes! Now to get the NICs working so I can test simh entirely. ;)
Also, your SCSI controllers went out today.
Dave you're off the hook. That does mean that the Cyber invasion
hosted on your system will take longer.....
