I've done this many times and haven't had to reboot my 2003 DCs.  Just
fyi...

Nathan, 

I hope you reboot your servers after you change the IP address. As good
as the TCP/IP stack has gotten with 2003 server, I still feel it's
important to reboot with such changes on a DC.

Nathan,

Typically, the change of IP address, subnet, default gateway and
associated
DNS entries will take care of most of what you need.

However, there is one more thing that needs to be done.  Pull up a
command
prompt on the DC that you've re-IPed, and type this at the prompt (in
its
entirety:

Net stop netlogon && net start netlogon

This will stop the netlogon service, then turn around and restart it
automatically.  As you might know, the NetLogon service is responsible
for
maintaining the DNS entries (SRV records, et. al.) and updating those as
necessary.  The stop/start of the service forces the update to happen
'right
now', and will be updated with the new data you've entered.

Hope this helps you along in your process.

Rick

Subject: [ActiveDir] Site IP Change 

We are currently updating our network infrastructure and a part of this
is having to change IPs on our internal network. Most devices are pretty
simple, but the main point I'm concerned about is changing our DCs. They
will all still be in the same subnet just using a different IP range. Is
there anything I would need to take care of specially in this situation
besides updating DNS information during/after the change to ensure
replication between DCs will function?

I'm trying to think through possible scenarios or issues that could
arise. If anyone has any insight it would be much appreciated.
