When I get done, I go back to my static IP address with # ifconfig eth0 your_static_ip_address up For example: ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.22 up I can once again mount NFS volumes, ssh or telnet into another machine etc. Depending upon your system, the second time that you /sbin/dhcpcd, you may have to kill the previous dhcpcd with: # killall dhcpcd.
