Important IP addresses for self-maintained machines

For those who maintain their own systems and are not using DHCP, the following are the magic IP addresses for the various networks in the SOE.

DNS Servers

We recommend using this as a resolv.conf file:

domain soe.ucsc.edu
search soe.ucsc.edu ucsc.edu
nameserver 128.114.48.21
nameserver 128.114.48.22
nameserver 128.114.48.23

(Note: If you run IRIX, please contact irix-admin@cse.ucsc.edu to determine if you also need a hostresorder line.)

Default Routers and Subnet Masks

Depending on the network you are on, the following are the correct default routers for that network. You must also correctly set the subnet mask. If you do not see an entry for the network you are on, we do not support that network and you should contact the provider of that network.

WINS Server Addresses

If you run Windows and need to use Microsoft Networking you will need to enter the WINS servers. They are:

128.114.48.40
128.114.48.41

Windows or Mac users should consider DHCP or plug-in the various values in the correct Control Panel->Network area.
