damn Suns

ping -s will do what you are expecting.

You don't need to run nslookup as root, you just need to make sure it's in your path or use the full path (/usr/sbin/nslookup)

afternoon all,

we're putting .Net onto Suns, isn't that fun

anyone know how to do ping on Suns,

I think this M9000 is taking the p when I run ping....

appserver:SIDadm 6% /usr/sbin/ping centralinstance
centralinstance is alive


I was hoping to see the IP address

no wonder Sun has zero market share

I was expecting a fascinating post about Betelgeuse and Sirius and the fate of the Universe as we know it, or something.

But with Milan posting, I might have known it would be about .Net

nslookup SERVER

as root

THe IP address might be in the etc/hosts file. And I might be wrong ..

That is the funniest thing I've heard all week.

I remember back in the 90's, a manager at one IB saying to a group of us, "I want to be able to replace all those windows PC's out there with Sun workstations"
