See below to compare notes.

Watch for a change on your default gateway (also called the INTERNET
gateway).

Watch for address changes on any network printers.

Not a problem as long as you're a part of Team HP3000-L!

I'm not positive of the following sequence, but I believe the steps are:
     NMMGR
     CONFIG key
     NS key
     UNGUIDED key
     NETXPORT key
     NI key
     Select the name of your network interface, probably LAN1
     MODIFY key
     PROTOCOL key
     IP key
     Change the IP address of the system
     SAVE key
     PRIOR key
     PRIOR key

If your IP address is changing, there is a good chance your defauld
gateway's
IP address is also changing.  If so, continue with the following.....
     INTERNET key
     Select the name of your internet interface, probably INTERNET
     MODIFY key
     Change the IP address of the default gateway
     SAVE key
     PRIOR key
     PRIOR key
     PRIOR key
     PRIOR key
     PRIOR key
     PRIOR key
     PRIOR key
     UTILITY key
     VALIDATE key
     NETXPORT key
     After reading the screen, press the RETURN key
     PRIOR key
     PRIOR key
     PRIOR key
     EXIT key

I'm sure some other people can add some additional things I haven't
thought about.


Hope this helps,
