How to configure DHCP to Static IP

I am pretty new to this. My router was earlier configured to enable DHCP, thus my UNIX box is using the dhcp address, i.e. I have to do a ifconfig dhcp hme0 start. Since I am planning to use my NT as a web server, I needed to use the static IP address. How do I configure the unix box to use the...

Node switched itself from static to DHCP on reboot issue

I'm trying to figure out what circumstances would cause an Open Solaris 11.2 host to switch itself from a static to a DHCP ip address upon reboot. This has only happened once but is a cause for some concern as this machine will be part of a web server pool. Nothing has changed on the LAN that...

reboot

REBOOT(8)						      System Manager's Manual							 REBOOT(8)

NAME

       reboot - reboot the system immediately

SYNOPSIS

       reboot [-f]

DESCRIPTION

       Reboot  can  be	used  to  reboot  the  system  after  installing a new kernel.	It does not inform the users, but does log it's actions in
       /usr/adm/wtmp and /usr/adm/authlog.  The system is then rebooted with the reboot(2) systemcall.

       If the -f flag is not given then all processes are sent terminate signals to give them a chance to die peacefully before the reboot() call.

       If the wtmp file exists, reboot logs itself as if it were a shutdown.  This is done to prevent last(1) from talking  about  system-crashes.
       Reboot is registered as is in the authlog file.

       Reboot can only be executed by the super-user.  Any other caller will be refused, either by reboot(8) or by reboot(2).

SEE ALSO

       reboot(2), shutdown(8), halt(8), boot(8).

BUGS

       The  error message's given by reboot are not always useful.  There are several routines that can fail, but which are not fatal for the pro-
       gram.
