if you have a Webune Linux Dedicated server, this command is useful if you ever need to change your servers ip address with just one command from the terminal shell.

lets say for example, i want to set the ip address of my ETH0 to 192.168.0.101 and a netmask of 255.255.255.0 i can use this command:

SHELL COMMAND:
ifconfig eth0 up 192.168.0.101 netmask 255.255.255.0 i


after you have set your configuration, you can restart your network:

SHELL COMMAND:
/etc/init.d/network restart


another way is to send this command if you have a RedHat, Fedora or CentOS server:

SHELL COMMAND:
setup
