[Hein van den Heuvel]

well, you should probably use

sysman
+ Networkingâ
| Network Setup Wizard

> Ethernet Interface -
:

Personally, working in a non-production lab I often just: vi /etc/rc.config
followed by: rcinet restart


fwiw,
Hein.

Yes, netconfig is the way to go.

[Vladimir Fabecic]

If you use /etc/rc.config do not forget to do vi /etc/hosts also.

[Ivan Ferreira]

Use sysman net_wizard to avoid problems. Or netconfig for Tru64 V4.

For changing DNS address edit /etc/resolv.conf

[Al Licause]

Don't forget to change the address in the local hosts file as well.

And if you are changing subnets, don't forget to adjust your default route and any other routes that may be affected by editing /etc/routes.
