Is this the setup that I must use?

Ikrinus.. how the feck can you own so many different computers and not know how to set up networking.. let alone what a loopback is? Are you trolling us?

All of my other systems do this automatically!

No Im not trolling you, Im a military pilot who fancies hardware among many other things, and seeing that this isn't my profession, I'm learning here. (This is the point isn't it?)

That comment of yours was rather nasty and unnecessary, I have explained before that I'm no expert here and that I bought these machines simply to have a learning experience.

I initially set the system up as a standalone system, so therefore I'm now reinstalling solaris 10 with the machine setup for networking. (I know that there are probably better ways to do this, but this is what I'm doing.)
