Re: [cobalt-developers] Chaning IP addresses

["Rob Spurlock" <rspurlock@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The DNS is not a problem.  We use Bind on a NT servers.  I assume that
changing the IP on the RaQ2 works fine in the admin site?  The real problem
is our RaQ1.  We have 2 of these and you cannot change IP by using the admin
site.  Any suggestions?

Thanks
