My first real quandry is how to get the machines

ie0's IP, excluding 127.0.0.1) gives me a "Network is down" response.
how about the plumb directive ?
read the init scripting, you should find a plumb directive to ifconfig
if im not mistaken, that has to be issued before the interface will
work
try grepping your scripting for the keyword plumb
( sunspeak for plumbing i suppose, taken from the context )
Sun:/etc/init.d# grep plumb *
asppp: system("ifconfig " $2 " unplumb")
rootusr: /sbin/ifconfig le0 plumb
sysid.net: /sbin/ifconfig -a plumb > /dev/null 2>&1
