Your choices are:

1) Change the IP address manually

2) Manually set the set each client to "Obtain the DNS server address
automatically". Then introduce a DHCP server to give those clients the new
DNS settings.

3) Use a script to change the IP address

4) Use a script to change the DNS settings on each client to "Obtain the DNS
server address automatically". Then set up a DHCP server to give those
clients the new DNS settings.

setting up a DHCP server to hand out the DNS settings from a central
location.

Here is a start on that script

All systems are configured manually.

Do you have DHCP set up or do you set the DNS settings on each client
manually?

we have about 100 systems and was wondering if there is an easy way
to
change
a DNS entry with out loging on to each system, all systems are W2k.
