Hi akash,

It seems that :

1. Somebody had remove the
# net start
from your boot process ( Level 2 : multi-users)or.

2. Somebody had stop it explicitly.

could be a mistake or done within a blind script.

Re: ping not working !!

hi ,

i do not know why does it happen ?. May be while bootup the system was not detecting a cable , or as my college said it may be a bad script.

Any file which u can see in /sbin/rc2.d which start with S* they all are started while the system goes from run-level 1 to 2 so S*net is the script for starting up your network services. You may go through the System Administration tasks manual for more informations or goto docs.hp.com.

I hv faced this problem 2-3 times i could never get a proper solution for this . And it does not happen every time i start the machine.

good luck,

kaps
