Yes; see the ifconfig(1M) and route(1M) commands for details. Note that some applications you're using may not be prepared for the interface addresses to change in this way. This isn't necessarily a problem with Solaris; it's a design problem with those applications. However, _finding_ all of the applications that are confused by such a change would likely be an error-prone chore. For that reason, I would recommend restarting the system. For what we're doing in the future in this area, see the NWAM project. -- James Carlson, Solaris Networking <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sun Microsystems / 1 Network Drive 71.232W Vox +1 781 442 2084 MS UBUR02-212 / Burlington MA 01803-2757 42.496N Fax +1 781 442 1677 _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list [email protected]
