RE: how change IP address?
You'll need to edit /etc/init.d/network if you're talking about the
ethernet IP address.
For PPP dialed up to a normal ISP, that's determined by your ISP, not
your machine.
As an asside to the list, what's the chances of the /etc/init.d/network
scripts being replaced with something else? Long ago I hacked up a
script for slackware to read bits and pieces from a directory and use
that information to build the interfaces. It'd make admining a lot
easier (I did it because I had a box with 3 real interfaces and a dozen
aliases) and handles things like being re-run when the interfaces are
up. (read: it downs them first..)
