You will need to use ‘adb’ to adjust either the kernel or the CSlip driver to change this value (slip_mtu).

You will need to use ‘adb’ to adjust either the kernel or the CSlip driver to change this value (slip_mtu). As root, and in single-user mode, apply this patch (please replace $THE_VALUE with the actual HEX value you want MTU to be): # Change SLIP MTU value to $THE_VALUE: just the kernel adb -w -k /unix << Foo slip_mtu?d slip_mtu?w $THE_VALUE $w $q Foo And reboot. You'll need to redo this whenever the kernel is rebuilt (like via 'newunix') unless you apply the patch to /etc/install.d/boot.d/cslip as follows: # Change SLIP MTU value to $THE_VALUE: keep it that way adb -w /etc/install.d/boot.d/cslip << Foo slip_mtu?d slip_mtu?w $THE_VALUE $w $q Foo Now run 'newconfig -v' and reboot. C.09) I'm having trouble having Solaris 2.4 NFS clients access my NFS server! On your Solaris client, you need to add the 'rsize=1024 wsize=1024' parameters to your mount option.
