The java application works for either Windows or Solaris.

There is also a lcd panel available for the SL500 which you can configure IP 
addresses and other cool stuff if you like new toys, it is not too expensive.

I am actually in the process of re-iping our SL500 and Sun Support said I 
*have* to have an engineer do it.  This is because you can only set the IP 
address using the "service" account which the install tech's configured when 
first setting the thing up.  If you know your local support guy, you might want 
to give them a call to see if they know the login/pass.

I found my answer.

On the back of the SL500 there is a public IP port for SLConsole/etc--
I am talking about the CLI/Console port which you connect via serial
cable/or special ethernet cable.

You (I) need to contact Sun/STK to get the initial user/password to login
via the CLI, then I can configure the public interface and use SLConsole
et all.

Justin.
