Ok list. One more question to help me with my LAN restructuring. This is on a very old system Red Hat 6.0 If I have an existing system with hostname: something IP: XXX.XXX.XXX.98 and I want to change it on the same LAN to hostname: somethingelse IP: XXX.XXX.XXX.101 What files to I need to alter? Is there a tool to do this or is it manual edits? Should I do this off the LAN, reconnect and then reboot? I do not want to upgrade the system. It does nothing but serve an obsolete database and I do not want to migrate the data. If I can just have it be another hostname and IP on the existing LAN that will solve all problems. In fact, the hostname and IP I wish to change it too is for a system that died a year ago so all machines on that LAN have a hosts entry for that IP and sendmial is configured to send mail to it if it ever shows up. Thanks for all the help RedHat gurus. Peace john ------------------------------------ John N.
