Changing IP address on NCR UNIX

Can someone assist please. I am trying to change IP address on NCR UNIX using tcpconfig but the address wont change!! Using ifconfig -a I still see the old address! This is on an NCR S24 server.

Did you edit the /etc/inet/sdf file?
Then you should have a /sbin/init.d or /etc/init.d with a something inet to stop/start
Im sure there is a link in /etc/rc2.d/Sxxinet

so you stop at the console xxinet stop
the start int gain xxinet start

So look for the ethernet config files and edit them, give the new IP values, then stop / start the inet subsystem

Cant help you more, thats ages I havent seen an NCR...

Hi there, I did all of the above but no joy. It must be something to do with NIC. Thanks anyway, I learned something new out of your response as well.

Have you checked its not getting its IP via DHCP ?
