The following assumes you're running the C-Shell.\ \ \f2\fs24 cd /etc/netinfo\ foreach db (*.nidb)\ mv $\{db\} $\{db\}-old\ end\ cp -rp /usr/template/client/etc/netinfo/local.nidb .\ cd ..\ mv hostconfig hostconfig.old\ mv hosts hosts.old\ cp -p /usr/template/client/etc/hostconfig .\ cp -p /usr/template/client/etc/hosts .\ halt\ \f0\fs28 DISCONNECT THE COMPUTER FROM THE NETWORK\ REBOOT\ \ NOTE that this is NOT sufficient for undoing a clone server! See NextAnswer sysadmin.609 on how to undo a clone configuration server.\ \ \b Warning\ \b0 \ Don't change any values in the \i localhost \i0 and \i broadcasthost \i0 entries in the machines directory of the local NetInfo domain. Don't edit the \i localhost \i0 address in /etc/hosts, the localhost address is reserved and not to be altered.\ \ \ QA400\ \ Valid for 1.0 \ Valid for 2.0\ \
