Topic: how to change the sme server IP address

[eddiechen]

now my sme server is server only, the ip address is 192.168.1.100,

just becase I want to use pptp contact the sme server, I found if the client the network segment is 192.168.1, can not contact.

so I have to change my office network segment.

how to change the sme server IP address?

please give me some suggestion.

I have check all the docment

You're looking in the wrong chapter. Take a look in http://wiki.contribs.org/SME_Server:Documentation:Administration_Manual:Chapter6#The_Server_Console.

More specifically, you need to select option 2 in the server console. Go through all the screens, leave everything as it is, except for the local IP adress and/or network segment (whatever you need to adjust). Don't forget to use option 4 after you've changed the relevant settings (reconfigure and reboot your server).

thank you very much, after finish installed, the first time login, would appear server console, let you reset the setting.

now I use ssh contact to the sme server. what comand can show the server console?

[Frank VB]

Either log in locally (at the console) of your server or log in remotely with Putty as admin. The admin password is the same as the root password you specified while installing.

really thank you very much. I use admin ssh login and see the server consoles.

When logged in as root: "su admin" will do.

[eddiechen]

excellent。

When logged in as root: "su admin" will do.

If logged in as root the preferred way would be to type at command line:

console

console

Hmmm, I would have expected that running console was something for the admin user.
No problems to be expected with permissions on files in /home/e-smith/db ?
Permissions now are:

[root@smeserver7 db]# pwd; ls -la
