| 9sscpu problem:

There were a number of sparcstation related bugs in the cdrom release,
like the missing entry from ndb, and a bug in wrkey.  The fixes should
be included in the boddles, but until you apply them authentication
won't work.  One unfixed (I think) problem is that you cannot have the
auth server list the auth server's address as 0.0.0.0.  Just give it
its real ip address and let it time out.

Did you run wrkey before installing the fix?  One way to clean out
misinformation in eeprom is to boot sunos and run "cat /dev/zero
/dev/eeprom".
