Hi - sorry to interrupt, but needing or expecting a reboot is old-style Windows
thinking.
At the highest level, ifconfig will directly change the IP address of an
interface dynamically:
$ ifconfig eth0 129.1.2.3
will directly change the IP address. Don't forget to change broadcast and
netmask parameters if you are changing subnets. And you will need to change
the routing entries.
But simple and effective is:
$ /etc/init.d/network stop; /etc/init.d/network start
once you have changed the sysconfig/ifcfg-eth0 and network_cfg files.
