the hosts file is just how to look a name up ... not a configuration thang'
do more on the file above and you will see that darn ip that wont goaway ...

Dear All,
I can't seem to change the IP number of a Redhat 4.2 box. All the files
/etc/hosts etc all have the new number but rebooting the computer always
leads to its using its old IP number.
netcfg reports that the new number has been set. It just diesn't work.
Any clues
Cheers
Rees
