Put that code into a script... for example... $ cat << EOF > /tmp/do_it_now.sh #!/bin/sh service netif restart dhclient em0 dhclient em1 EOF Then add a line to your /etc/crontab that will fire in the next 1-2 minutes... sh -c 'echo "$((($(date +%M)+2)%60)) $(date +%H) * * * root sh /tmp/do_it_now.sh" >> /etc/crontab' NB: That's a single command to be entered on a single line Then just wait a minute or two, you'll get kicked out, start a ping, and when it starts responding on the new IP address (hopefully you know what this is) you can log in on the new address. Of course, the next thing you should do is to edit /etc/crontab to remove the entry else the same time tomorrow it will reset your network. Lastly, remove the /tmp/do_it_now.sh script. -- Devin _____________ The information contained in this message is proprietary and/or confidential.
