[OpenIndiana-discuss] Change IP Address for a zone.

Fri Mar 15 07:51:33 UTC 2013

All it says is "routert3.ds".

I've searched, not only the zone, but the entire server, for files containing the IP Address.  If I remember right (it's 2:00 AM here), the only file that has it is the /etc/hosts files.  Certainly nothing helpful.  It really makes me wonder where all the dladm info is stored.

Thanks anyway.  I appreciate it.  

I should probably try to get some sleep, and if nobody knows how to do it, I'll just rebuild the zone.  No point in making it harder than it has to be... even if it would be nice to know.

Fun!!!
