Hi all.

I have an Ultra 2 with an hme and le NIC, running Solaris 2.6 with Squid
and Apache. The hme is configured and active. How can the le NIC be
utilised? How is it done?

Please reply to my e-mail address.

The EASY (not necessarily the most elegant) way:
1. Add the hostname and IP number to /etc/hosts.
2. Create the file /etc/hostname.le0 with the hostname from step 1 as
its contents.
3. Reboot the machine.

Remember that it is pointless to put two ethernet interfaces on the same
subnet.
