Hi,

Chamging or restoring IP addresses is very simple.

These are all the involved files:

Lets'a say you want to change the ip fro le0 interface from 1.1.1.1
to 2.2.2.2


1. /etc/hosts

2. /etc/hostname.interface_name (interface_name = qfe0, le0 etc)

3. /etc/netmasks

example:
#(old)
#1.1.0.0		255.255.255.0

#(new)
2.2.0.0		255.255.255.0


Example for on the fly changes without re-boot:

# ifconfig le0 inet 2.2.2.2 netmask + up

That's all friend.

Morgan
