Can anyone give me easy to follow instructions on how to configure a network card run 100mb full duplex at startup for solaris 9?

Thanks...

Of course you would have to change the 'ce' to the type of adapter you have. Then to make this persist through reboots you have 3 options: create a ce.conf file; put the entries in /etc/system; or create an /etc/init.d script and link it to rc2.d.

Using the .conf file, you can override the settings with and init.d script if you have multiple adapters of that type but say one of them HAS to be at 10 half, you can put that in the init.d script and it will override the .conf settings.
