Hey,
thanks for taking time for my problem.
I know i can change the ip after startup with ifconfig, but I want to
understand how the scripts in rc?.d are working.
Thanks for your help in advance...

Changing the IP adress is simple, though - but we'll leave that as an
assignment to you ;-)

the file /etc/.UNCONFIGURED doesnt exist, so /etc/rc2.d/S30sysid.net is
ignored
AND however, in this script a ifconfig auto-revarp is used.
Iam really sorry, i want to know from where the system gets the ip.
The system gets the hostname from /etc/hostname.le0, but from where the IP.
His IP appears only in /etc/hosts and in the the DNS-server-entrys.
Thanks for your knowledge

1. Multiple NICs, IP changes permanent
Hi all,
I have three interfaces configured on my box, and each lives on a
different network:
# ifconfig -a
lo0: flags=1000849<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv4> mtu 8232 index 1
inet 127.0.0.1 netmask ff000000
hme0: flags=1000843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv4> mtu 1500 index 2
inet 10.0.0.1 netmask ffffff00 broadcast 10.0.0.255
ether 8:0:20:bd:ca:22
qfe0: flags=1000843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv4> mtu 1500 index 3
inet 172.19.124.25 netmask ffffff00 broadcast 172.19.255.255
ether 8:0:20:bd:ca:22
qfe1: flags=1000843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv4> mtu 1500 index 4
inet 172.18.86.106 netmask ffffff00 broadcast 172.18.255.255
ether 8:0:20:bd:ca:22
I want the host name to be the same on all networks. I have placed an
entry for each in /etc/hosts:
#more /etc/hosts
127.0.0.1 localhost
10.0.0.1 ingot loghost
172.19.124.25 ingot
172.18.86.106 ingot
And have created /etc/hostname.hme0, qfe0, and qfe1, each containing the
name "ingot."
When I reboot the machine, all settings for qfe0 and qfe1 are lost. So I
wrote an rc script to force the issue and ifconfig plumb, ifconfig <int>
<net> <mask>, and ifconfig up each interface, and then add some static
routes.
During the boot sequence the machine complains about not being able to
assign addresses to qfe0 and qfe1.
I run a dozen machines with multiple ethernet interfaces, and some of
their configs stick with them through reboots, and some do not. I thought
that the /etc/hostname.xxx was the trick, but it doesn't work on all
machines. I can never tell for sure what black magic commands are the
ones that work.
I am just trying to add to my limited knowledge and get to the bottom of
this.
How can I make the above changes stick through reboots?
Thanks.
