Ah, sorry I missed the joke. :-)

Similar to the hostname change, the IP address is really easy, and we do 
this at work on a regular basis. (We actually do both, building a 
life-cycle server with a slightly different name and IP address.) Since 
both docs are already up on genunix...

As an aside, we should have a clear link on the genunix wiki page 
(http://www.genunix.org/wiki/index.php/OpenSolaris_Documentation_Community_SketchPad)
 
pointing to the docs listing 
(http://www.genunix.org/wiki/index.php/HOWTOs_and_Guides). I just don't 
know the best place for it, off hand. Suggestions?

Also, I've moved the finished docs from the Future section to the done 
section in the HowTo list.

May as well do what little I can in the short time I seem to have each day.
