Change Static Ip Address On Suse 9.3
Please assist I'm a newbie to Suse. I need to change the static IP address of a SUSE 9.3 webserver. Towards this end I do not have access to YaSt as I am unable to launch the OS in graphics mode.
Currently the server has the following ip configs:
BROADCAST='213.193.43.63'
IPADDR='213.193.43.5', NETMASK='255.255.255.192', NETWORK='213.193.43.0' GATEWAY='213.193.43.1'
and has to be changed to:
BROADCAST='213.193.41.155', IPADDR='213.193.41.154',
NETMASK='255.255.255.252', NETWORK='213.193.41.152'
GATEWAY='213.193.43.153'
The Kernel IP routing table is:
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface
213.193.43.0 * 255.255.255.192 U 0 0 0 eth0
link-local * 255.255.0.0 U 0 0 0 eth0
loopback * 255.0.0.0 U 0 0 0 lo
default e1-1.gw2.gbe1.a 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0
I'm not sure of the following:
1. All the files that need to be changed:
So fat I have identified:
a. /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-eth-id-00\:13\:21\:7c\:58\:be
b. /etc/hosts/
2. Whether routing needs to be changed and to what
3. How to list files where the current static IP is hardcoded.
4. If I can use ifconfig (I understand parameters configured using ifconfig are volatile and will disappear at reboot).
Please help
