Actually. you must stop CFMX, clear out the IP in  
CF_ROOT/lib/license.properties, then restart CFMX.

I modified the startup shell script to do this automatically (I just  
copy a virgin license.properties file over the tainted one)

This must be done while the server is stopped..

Here's the snippet of the shell script:

   echo "Starting CFMX..."
   echo 'Resetting the "Allowed External IP address"'

   if test -f $CF_DIR/lib/license.properties
   then
     #echo we have it in lib
      if test -w $CF_DIR/lib/license.properties
      then
      #echo writable
       if test -f $CF_DIR/lib/Developerlicense.properties
       then
        cp -f $CF_DIR/lib/Developerlicense.properties  
$CF_DIR/lib/license.properties
        echo 'The "Allowed External IP address" has been reset'
       fi
      fi
   fi

You then have to pray that nobody hits the site before the desired IP  
(you can't check it without having to reset).  I have requested  
(without success) that MM increase the number of external IP addresses  
to a more usable number (say 5).  This would make multiple user tests  
and demos much more practical, and still wouldn't compromise the  
"Development" status of the system -- you still would need to restet  
after the 5th external IP, so it couldn't be used for production.
