My server was a replica and we were trying to change ip's with the changeip

cannot ssh, I even added a serial cable to consol in to login and fix the
ip. Upon login prompt I have typed in root and admin and then password it
just times Out!

It's b/c you somehow didn't change the IP properly and now it can't talk to itself by IP to do any authentication.


What other ways can I change the ip of a dead headless xserve? Can I target
disk mode and change a file?

Use Single User Mode, not target disk mode. --
