Changing main IP-Address

Hi there,

I searched this Forum several times, to get a solution, but all I was able to find were some broken links...:-(

I want to replace our current Webserver ( FreeB>SD 5.4, Plesk 8.0.x) via a new machine, running FreeBSD 5.5 and Plesk 8.1.1.

So far, so good...

I installed it, and now I wonder, if there's a possibillity to change the main IP-Address of the new server?

When I chang the OS's IP-Address it works for the OS, but in Plesk, the "old" one will still remain, and I'am not able to change it.

It would be really nice, if someone could help me with a solution.

Best regards from Germany

When you change the IP under the OS does it appear In:plesk - IP addresses management ?
If it is so, try to switch the domain to the new IP ( Domains -yourdomain.tld - Setup - there should be an option to switch it)

Then if the old IP still persist and stay gray-listed in Plesk, can be removed with this command:

/usr/local/psa/bin/ipmanage --remove x.x.x.x
 
You didn't say what OS - but if it's a linux flavor run this:

#/usr/local/psa/bin/reconfigurator.pl map

This will create an IP map file named 'map' - edit this file changing the old IP with the new (there's instructions in the file created by the command) then run the command again. That should do it.
