Hello, I have been on a dynamic ip for about 5 years and have just upgraded to a static ip. I know I need to change my network setup on my eth0 nic to static and stop ddclient from trying to update my address but is there _really_ anything else I need to change. I have a couple of websites on this address using *:80 in my httpd.conf. I can easily change this but don't think it would really make any difference if I don't. Also, my ISP is using different lingo than what linux uses. I suspect they think everyone runs Windoze. Can anyone decipher this for me, my ISP tech support has already gone for the day. IP Addresses: 71.30.117.0/30 Netmask: 255.255.255.252 Router IP: 71.30.117.1 <--------------- This Useable IP's: 71.30.117.2 <--------------- and this My ip address, if I do an ifconfig, is 71.30.117.1. This has me a little confused as they tell me my ip address is 71.30.117.2 TIA
