What were you trying to do?
See how some variables were set in rc.conf, but that's not
really important now.
What's wrong:
I noticed that HOST and ADDR, were wrong, notably they were
the name that the machine had when it was installed. (It's
name was changed since then). It appears that solaris_reconf
doesn't update rc.conf.
What should have happened:
solaris_reconf should update all of the files that contain the
hostname and IP addr.
Are there any other vaguely related questions you want to ask?
Yes, why does the name "loghost" appear in the file
/etc/inet/hosts?
