Very Computer

I am a newbie in Unix/Solaris administration. I am setting up a new
server on a Sun box running Solaris 7. The OS had been installed by
someone else. Now, I got a network IP address issued by our network
department. I need to change the Sun box IP but I have no clue how to do
it. I could not find any clear instruction on Sun's web site or
Internet. The system is not in production yet.

From what I have heard it seems that there will be more than one files
at different locations I need to make changes. Which and Where? Could
somebody experienced please help me out? I am desperate to change the IP
address.

Any help would be very much appreciated!!

Regards,
Kevin Mou

man sys-unconfig, and notice that the machine will reboot and execute
sysidtool during which you will re-configure to the new state.

Before you buy.

You might want to run sys-unconfig i wouldn't but you might read
man sys-unconfig it could help, man ifconfig too. It shouldn't be that
hard.
good luck
