Good Day Sir/Madam,

I am a Unix newbie and have just installed FreeBSD 3.1 and would like to change the default IP from 127.0.0.1
to 167.52.0.5. Also I would like to change the local name to Sonar. 

I am sure you have answered this questions hundreds of times but I could not find any information regarding this in the online userguide. 

I did try and edit /etc/hosts

Thanks,
Kim Heise
