Hi,
How can I change the IP address and other network related information of a linux(Debian) machine?

TIA
Vikas

ifconfig
You might also want to change /etc/hosts
or install linuxconf for debian.

Hi,

1. Change your /etc/hosts
2. Change your /etc/rc.config.d/netconf
3. Reboot the system.

hi,
try the following:

#ifconfig eth0 xxx.xx.xx.xx netmask yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy up
#route add default gateway zzz.zz.zz.zz eth0

then try to ping your ip address and other boxes in your network.

Maybe /etc/network/interfaces is also a nice one so you can configure your nic('s). And the usual that the other people already said.
