One thing to remember is the earlier versions on solaris 10 used /etc/inet/ipnodes in addition to the hosts file. (if you didn't edit ip nodes the system would use the original ip).<br />
&nbsp;I believe update 3 and above use a pointer, so you only have to edit /etc/hosts. <br />
<br />
Also - You will need to edit <br />
/etc/defaultrouter<br />
/etc/netmask<br />
<br />

I have a new system (A) that I need to configure like old system (B). &nbsp;Both are running Solaris 10. &nbsp;I plan to bring down system B into single user, then change the IP and System Name in /etc/hosts, /etc/hostname.* and the /etc/nodename on the A system, with the information from the B system. &nbsp;Then reboot. &nbsp;Am I forgetting anything?

Unix is a multitasking, multi-user computer operating system originally developed in 1969 at Bell Labs. Today, it is a modern OS with many commercial flavors and licensees, including FreeBSD, Hewlett-Packard’s UX, IBM AIX and Apple Mac OS-X. Apart from its command-line interface, most UNIX variations support the standardized X Window System for GUIs, with the exception of the Mac OS, which uses a proprietary system.
