Hi all,

I've created a virtual machine using Vmware 7 on Windows 7 x64 installing 
Solaris 10 (image downloaded today from oracle site): everything is fine 
except the networking, I can't ping my default router and of course can't 
connect to web.

I've set in vmware the network mode as "bridged", set everything on Solaris: 
/etc/defaultrouter with 192.168.0.1, /etc/hostname.e1000g0, /etc/hosts , 
/etc/resolv.conf with 192.168.0.1, /etc/nsswitch.conf with "dns" before 
"files" for hosts and ipnode.

Before I had a Windows XP SP3 system with Vmware 6, a 2008 release of 
Solaris 10 and everything worked like a charm !

Thanks all for any help and best regards,
Ale

what does ifconfig -a show, can you ping the windows system?

Don't so that. Please make sure that files is first on hosts: line.
