Could you explain your problem in a bit more detail than that?
If you're trying to get a different dynamic IP address, one way is to try to force the dhcp server to do so.
For example, in SuSE the dhcp client is dhcpcd. I believe the commandshould do what you want. It's not entirely clear to me from the man pages, but I think you may need to restart it after doing so. (Make sure one isn't already running first.)Code:dhcpcd -k
I think most other distros use dhclient, so if you fall into that category have a look at its man pages.

In Debian, the dhcp client (at least mine) is called dhclient. And if your eth0 interface is configured to get the ip automatically by dhcp, you just type
ifdown eth0 (or the interface you use for it)
ifup eth0
and that should change the ip.
