    Apparently, Sol10 got a bit more strict. The /etc/inet/ipnodes file was
    the culprit. Thanks to all for their responses and to David, Ruben,
    Darren, Dave, and Tim who had the correct answer.
    I took the extra entries from ipnodes and moved them to hosts then
    linked ipnodes to hosts. Done.
    Thanks to the best answer list on the net.

    Original Question
    =================
    OS: Sol10-200503
    System: Ultra 60

    I am definitely missing something here. I wanted to change the IP of my
    workstation so I modified my entry in /etc/hosts to the new IP, rebooted
    and it is still using the old IP. This has to be some Sol10 thing or I
    am just still drunk from last night.

    /etc/hostname.ce0 contains my hostname
    /etc/nodename contains my hostname
    uname -n produces my hostname
    /etc/nsswitch.conf has 'files dns' for the hosts: entry
    /etc/hosts has my hostname with the new IP (not duplicated)

    What am I missing?
    TIAWS, Rick
