Following this procedure will also allow you to change the IP address ([http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IP_address IPv4 3rd position]) of the HDA, DHCP server's address range, and network gateway (router) for your network. As with all changes to networking configuration, have a good knowledge of what you are doing and rangeplan your changes carefully.
Open a terminal window (AKA command prompt).
Login as root by typing'''NOTE: ''' suThis will not allow you to change the HDA IP address (IPv4 4th position), only make them match the change to the network gateway (IPv4 3rd position). Amahi DHCP server assigns IP addresses (IPv4 4th position) < 100 for Static IP Reservations and > 100 are for DHCP leases. This CANNOT be changed at the current time.
You'll be asked for a password. This is the first password you created when installing your = Amahi server, NOT the password you added later and usually use to login. (If it will not accept your password, boot your server off of the installation DVD 10 or the first CD into rescue mode greater (https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora/13/html/Installation_Guide/s1-rescuemode-boot.html) and use the passwd command to change the root password {https://www.rackaid.com/helpdesk/index.php?_m=knowledgebase&_a=viewarticle&kbarticleid=17}.)
Type hda-change-gw 192.168.xThe graphical interface is broken ([https://bugs.x and press Enteramahi. For the first x, enter any number you like between 1 and 255org/issues/2285 Bug #2285]). The second x should be the gateway address of your network, which is usually 1.
You will get "Network settings were successfully applied. Your HDA services have been restarted...The best way to do this is via command line.It is strongly recommended that you reboot all systems on your network at this pointFollow the Amahi 6 instructions below."

Then reboot any other computers on your network that are running - or you can release and renew their IP addresses if you know how to do that.   If you run the ifconfig command from a terminal window after the Amahi server reboots, it will give you the server's new IP address. The address will typically be 192.168.x.200 where x is the number between 1 and 254 that you entered in the third octet (numbered section) position when you entered the hda-change-gw command.
