Renumbering A Network Using NIS+

Hi All,

I have to renumber a small network (150+ nodes), five computers of
which use NIS+. The NIS+ master and two of the computers are Sparc
Solaris 8. The other two Sparc boxes are Solaris 9 and/or 10. The Sun
boxes are all statically assigned IP addresses.

Can anybody point me to a doc or give me some pointers as to how to do
this? I was *hoping* to avoid having to dump and re-load the master,
as that didn't work last time, when I had to upgrade the host playing
master. Ended-up needing help from SunSolve, which won't be available
this time.

I've got a Perl script I hacked together to change all the addresses in
hosts.org_dir, but I suspect it's going to take a bit more than that?

TIA,
Jim
