Alex,

A few things, if you do not reserve the IP in the DHCP server you won't get name resolution on your LAN for the machine, which may not be a big deal. And if you don't want to do the DHCP reserve for it, then on Centos 4.5 you can:
   1 - edit the /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 file by hand.

the file will look something like this:

BOOTPROTO=dhcp
TYPE=Ethernet
HWADDR=00:60:94:63:09:cd
DEVICE=eth0
MTU=""
NETMASK=""
BROADCAST=""
IPADDR=""
NETWORK=""
ONBOOT=yes


Edit ti to look like this;

BOOTPROTO=none
GATEWAY=192.168.1.1
TYPE=Ethernet
HWADDR=00:60:94:63:09:cd
DEVICE=eth0
MTU=""
NETMASK=255.255.255.0
BROADCAST=""
IPADDR=192.168.1.130
NETWORK=192.168.1.0
ONBOOT=yes

or
2 if your not comfortable editing the ifcfg-eth0 file, try the following:

since you said you don't have netconfig, type :
   locate config-network | grep bin
it shld return something like:
   /usr/bin/system-config-network
   /usr/bin/system-config-network-cmd
   /usr/sbin/system-config-network
   /usr/sbin/system-config-network-cmd
   /usr/sbin/system-config-network-gui
   /usr/sbin/system-config-network-tui

your looking for the system-config-network bin and sbin are the same, it will start up a text GUI to alter the interface settings

Hi,

You can either set the MAC address in the DHCP with a lease reservation, or just use "netconfig" from the shell.

Subject: [HEADER] - [biz] How to bind Asterisk to one local IP - Email found in subject

Hello

Just wondering if anyone can help:

I am trying to bind a local Linux machine to a fixed local IP address (e.g. 192.168.0.160) -- so that it does not change an IP every time I restart it.

Any idea how I can do it? Thanks.
