I need to change the network that our Conversant V8 is on and was wondering if any one knows how I can change the IP address and default gateway. Thanks
 
Try this


cd etc/inet/
./menu

system will respond sth like netcfg(try this command)\

after that use

rc.restart

command

Hope this helps

I'm also assuming that you are changing host names also.
Use 'uname -S newhostname' to change the host name
Check the following files for ip and host names changes:
/etc/inet/hosts
/etc/net/ticlts/hosts
/etc/net/ticots/hosts
/etc/net/ticotsord/hosts
/etc/inet/config (check the route stmts)
/etc/inet/nb.conf
If you do not have a dns server, be sure to check
/etc/hosts
Change ip addresses and net masks in
/etc/confnet.d/inet/interface
Add default router info to /etc/inet/rc.inet
Use '/usr/sbin/route add default xxx.xxx.xxx.xx h' where xxx is the ip addr and h is hops.
Add domain name changes in /etc/resolv.conv

Hope this info helps, I've been through it all!
