IP Change script & OS X Server Panther 10.3.x

awesome, thanks for the heads up! reading the docs, I think I have the command right, but I’d appreciate confirmation.

my server is its own password/open directory server; there are no other dependent/related servers. it’s old IP was 209.121.101.176, it’s new one is 207.54.115.218.

the man page mentions to run the changeip command, and then change the network panel settings… however, this computer’s already serving at the new IPs, so it’s network prefs panel is already defined for the new ones. will this cause problems when running the command?:

changeip /LDAPv3/127.0.0.1 209.121.101.176 207.54.115.218

(should I be pointing to the directory node with 127, or its new IP? 127 should be right no matter what, so it seems logical…)

note: 207.54.115.218 is the machine’s primary interface; both the old and the new address point to the same machine name: stats

😮

thanks much,
Wolfman

I ran the script even *after* I’d changed the network preferences pane, and all seemed to work fine.

all in all, though, I’m pretty disappointed with the response on this forum. kind of useless if no one answers questions.
