	I asked this question but yesterday.  There are a tonne of good
answers on it.

	The low-down:

	1. change /etc/rc.conf
	2. change /etc/hosts
	3. run "ifconfig eth0 inet 192.168.1.1 netmask 255.255.255.0"
with all your info in there instead.  you're good to go.  no reboot
required.  [eth0 is network card]


	Thassit.

web pages search entry.
