Hi folks,

What is the best way to change the IP address of a gateway?
Other than using the route command - that won't survive a reboot.

I have a new router with a different IP and need to configure
accordingly.

I find the basic data is in /etc/network/interfaces, but it's a
"no-edit" file. Presumably there's a better way? A tool, a script?

Why is it a "no-edit" file? I thought *this* was the way to configure
network on Debian.

Andrei
