I am not sure which of the following things solved it :-). 1. Check to see if you have chosen the right Ethernet Adapter. You can do this through smit-devices-comm-ethernet adapter-adapter- change/show. If you have thick net you should have en0 configured and have dix as the adapter/ for thin net ent0 and bnc. 2. Try rebooting the system. 3. If you have a domainserver then check to see if resolv.conf file in /etc is ok. Hope this solves your problem.
