Do not create an /etc/hostname.hme<num> file for a SunSwift PCI adapter
channel you do not plan to use. The /etc/hostname.hme<num> file must
contain the hostname for the appropriate network interface.
The hostname should have an IP address and should be entered in the
/etc/hosts file.
The hostname should be different from any other hostname of any other interface,
for example: /etc/hostname.hme0 and /etc/hostname.hme1 cannot share
the same hostname.
The following is an example of the /etc/hostname.hme<num> files required for a
machine called zardoz that will be known as zardoz-11 and zardoz-12 on the
networks connected to the hme0 and hme1 Ethernet interfaces.
zardoz # cat /etc/hostname.hme0
zardoz-11
zardoz # cat /etc/hostname.hme1
zardoz-12
3. Create an appropriate entry in the /etc/hosts file for each active hme channel.
Using the example in Step 2, you will have:
zardoz # cat /etc/hosts
...
127.0.0.1
129.144.10.57 zardoz
129.144.11.83 zardoz-11
129.144.12.41 zardoz-12
