change ip address & NFS

Hello,

I would like to change ip address & ethernet address, in the linux application. I work with NFS.
I remember from past experience that changing ip address when working with NFS, can interfere the NFS, and OS will stop working, but I didn't find any documentation for that.
Is anyone familiar with this issue, and knows if it is possible to modify ip & mac address ?

Regards,
Ran

hmm...

"Linux" is not an application, but a (class of) operating system(s). Since different Linuxes may have different facilities to accomplish what you want it would help to tell us what exactly you are working with. Post here the output of the command

Code:
uname -a

Then tell us about your setup: on which machine do you want to change the IP address, the NFS client or the NFS server? What exactly is mounted over NFS so that the "OS will stop working"?
