changeing the IP address

[Erwin Rol]

Is it possible to change the IP address (, netmask and gateway)
from a running system without reboot (re-init) ?

I only found a reference on setting up the address at init time
but don't realy understand if the same thing should be used
for reconfiguration at runtime.

TIA,
Erwin
