HPUX only...

For HPUX, you only need to change 2 places. I recently did this when my systems changed this when new routers were installed on my network with a different IP address scheme.

/etc/hosts

/etc/rc.config.d/netconf

These are the two places you need to change it.


Then you can check it by running.

netstat -rn

Look for your primary lan card. In most cases, it is lan0.


Also remember, if you have any security that runs, that piece will need to be updated. In my case that was a mandatory step for users to login at all.


Hope this helps.

NAME
clone_member - Clone a Mailman subscriber address SYNOPSIS
clone_member [options] fromoldaddr tonewaddr DESCRIPTION
Cloning a member address means that a new member will be added who has all the same options and passwords as the original member address. Note that this operation is fairly trusting of the user who runs it -- it does no verification to the new address, it does not send out a welcome message, etc. The existing member's subscription is usually not modified in any way. If you want to remove the old address, use the -r flag. If you also want to change any list admin addresses, use the -a flag. OPTIONS
clone_member [options] fromoldaddr tonewaddr -l listname, --listname=listname Check and modify only the named mailing lists. If -l is not given, then all mailing lists are scanned from the address. Multiple -l options can be supplied. -r, --remove Remove the old address from the mailing list after it's been cloned. -a, --admin Scan the list admin addresses for the old address, and clone or change them too. -q, --quiet Do the modifications quietly. -n, --nomodify Print what would be done, but don't actually do it. Inhibits the 0 fromoldaddr (`from old address') is the old address of the user. tonewaddr (`to new address') is the new address of the user. AUTHOR
