Solaris 11 DNS Configuration

edited Mar 8, 2012 8:04PM in Oracle Solaris Networking (MOSC) 10 commentsAnswered
 I have a new Solaris 11 Express server that I'm building.  I'm trying to configure the nameservers it should point to.  I'm following the standard steps that I found online as follows:
# svccfg
svc:> select dns/client
svc:/network/dns/client> setprop config/search = astring: \
("us.company.com" "eu.company.com" "companya.com" "companyb.com" "company.com" )
svc:/network/dns/client> setprop config/nameserver = net_address: \
( 138.2.202.15 138.2.202.25 )
svc:/network/dns/client> select dns/client:default
svc:/network/dns/client:default> refresh
svc:/network/dns/client:default> validate
svc:/network/dns/client:default> select name-service/switch
svc:/system/name-service/switch> setprop config/host = astring: "files dns"
svc:/system/name-service/switch> select system/name-service/switch:default
svc:/system/name-service/switch:default> refresh
svc:/system/name-service/switch:default> validate
svc:/system/name-service/switch:default> 
# svcadm enable dns/client

Howdy, Stranger!
