Hi,

is there a tool to change all occurences of a servers ip-address?
in bash:

for file in /etc/*; do
  perl -pi -e "s/12.34.56.78/23.34.45.56/ $file;"
done
 ^^^ wouldn't be *QUITE* right ;)

the $file should be in a seperate set of "", so perl -pi -e 
"s/12.34.56.78/23.34.45.56/sg;" "$file"

and the reason to put $file in ", as we all know, is for those odly 
named files that some how manage to get on the system with odd 
characters in 'em ;)

Cheers,

Brett.
