- We have a Decstation 5000/200 server with 3 diskless clients. We need
- to change the IP addresses of all 4 machines. We got the server changed
- with no problem. We changed one client by deleting the client and
- adding it back with dms. After doing this we had to reconfigure all
- the installed sets. Is there an easier way to do this? In particular,
- is the IP address of the client stored some place where we can edit
- it? (We tried editing the IP addresses in both the server and client
- /etc/hosts, but that did not do the job.)
-
- Thanks.
