[Macpartners] OS X server rename

[Stuart Kiang]

Hi,

We're running our office network with OS X server, version 10.2.8, and 
would like to change the server's IP address and computer name.

Old: 18.164.0.93   hostname: bluepages.mit.edu
New: 18.164.0.97   hostname: rpo.mit.edu

Is there anything tricky about this type of change that we need to be 
aware of?

What I'm afraid of is changing the server's name and then being locked 
out, i.e. unable to log in with the same administrator id and password.

Does anyone have any experience to share?

Thanks,
