Hi,

The files that you need to change are:-

/etc/rc.config.d/netconf
which defines LAN interfaces, routing etc

and /etc/hosts

Hi,

for changing ip-address would
recommend to use:
/sbin/set_parms ip_address
(the network settings are stored in
/etc/rc.config.d/netconf)
and for more network settings:
/sbin/set_parms addl_netwrk
If you have MC-Serviceguard i'm not
familar with that - may be someone
else could give you some help for
this.

/etc/rc.config.d/netconf and /etc/hosts are two file you must change, although your applications may demand other changes as well. Change the parameters for the interface you want to modify (lan0, lan1, etc..) and don?t forget the routing parameters. You will have to restart your networking or reboot your machine for the changes to take.
Good luck,
