[m1rr0z]

Recently my server provider (rapidspeeds.com) changed the IP range on their network.

So I need to edit my network setting accordingly but wasn't be able to make it done..
SSH is inaccessible trough putty so I'm running the SSH terminal trough KVM..
I need someone experience to help me..

Ssh via KVM and type this command

nano /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0

You Will get this output

TYPE=Ethernet
DEVICE=eth0
BOOTPROTO=
IPADDR=85.17.26.xx
NETMASK=255.255.255.0
USERCTL=yes
IPV6INIT=no
PEERDNS=yes
ONBOOT=yes

Remove your present IP and add the new one .

Press ctrl+O (Same the file) and ctrl+x ( to exit)

Then type this command in root

service network restart

You are ready to use your new IP .




Edit: You will need the Gateway to add the new IP, ask them for your gateway also
