HP10.20 Basic Network Configuration

Cai Nan — Tue, 22 Jan 2002 01:11:15 GMT

Morning,
We just changed our Domain name, IP address and so on,I configure /etc/rc.config.d/netconf: IP ADDRESS,SUBNET_MASK,BROADCAST_ADDRESS;ROUTE_GATEWAY manually, but which file could I change the domain name and name server?
By the way,command:"set_parms initial" configure what files in detail?

Thanks
--Frank

Hi,

In /etc/rc.config.d/netconf, there is the following line:

HOSTNAME="your_server_hostname"

Replace as appropriate. This will take effect upon next reboot.

Hope this helps. Regards.

Hi, Steven.
Are you mean:HOSTNAME="hostname.domain name" ?
But when I finished set_parms initial,it seems don't chang the line"HOSTNAME="hostname"to
"hostname.domainname",but my domain name changed. So I think there is another file resposible for domain name?

Hi,

I thought you were asking for hostname. For domain name, it is in /etc/resolv.conf.

Hope this helps. Regards.

Hi,

I notice you are asking for name server as well in your question. Name servers are similarly configured in /etc/resolv.conf eg.

domain your_domain_name
nameserver 1st_dns_ip_address
nameserver 2nd_dns_ip_address
...

You can add multiple nameserver entries in /etc/resolv.conf.

Hope this helps. Regards.
