Hi Gentoo users, what is the proper way of changing static IP-address remotely without the need to restart the whole system (or locking me out)?
I have one interface with static IP, so first I'm going to edit /etc/conf.d/net. Then I will set up command for later execution: # echo '#!/bin/bash' > /root/eth-restart # echo '/etc/init.d/net.eth0 restart' >> /root/eth-restart # chmod 0700 /root/eth-restart # at -f /root/eth-restart now + 5 min Then I terminate my ssh-session hoping 5 minutes later I can connect using new IP. Is this correct and all that is necessary? Jarry -- _______________________________________________________________ This mailbox accepts e-mails only from selected mailing-lists!
