   I guess you already got it working another way, but regarding this...   
      
   If you're not familiar with how to hack the configuration scripts   
   directly, why on Earth aren't you using the TCP/IP configuration GUI?   
      
   Run "tcpcfg2" from a command prompt.  The first three pages are all   
   you need to change your IP address to static:   
     Network: Select the "manually" radiobutton; fill in the IP address   
              field with your desired address, and the Subnet mask field   
              with 255.255.255.0 (and ignore the "Advanced" tabs).   
     Routing: Choose "Add", select "Route type" "Default" and enter   
              a destination IP address of 192.168.1.1 (metric count 0).   
     Host Names: Make sure 192.168.1.1 also appears in the Name Server list.
