how to change the ip address on sco unix

pdoug76 · May 28, 2003

I have a Sco unix box with ip 125.127.1.1 sub 255.255.255.0. I want to change it to a 192. ip.

Use

Code:

netconfig

and change the TCP/IP protocol parameters.
You can also add an alternate IP@ (an alias) with the

Code:

ifconfig

command.

Don't forget to fix /etc/hosts after modifying IP, sometimes it leaves a mess.

i changed the ipaddress in the etc/tcp
anc cleaned up the etc/hosts
should i reboot the system

Yes, a reboot will be preferable.
However, a

Code:

tcp stop; tcp start

will be perhaps sufficient.
