OD problem after changing IP address

Hi,
I changed IP address on the server(OD receiver). Since then my open deployment is not working. I have two nic cards on it. I have gone through knowledge base articles. One of the article says bind the required IP with port 20014. I did that too. But there is no luck. Any one had this kind of problem before. Please advise. Thanx in advance.

A few things to try/check:

* Is OD receiver listening on port 20014 on the right interface ?
* After changing the IP did you restart the OD service on Rxer ?
* After changing the IP, did you change the OD base files (odbase.xml, deployment config) to reflect this ? You might have to restart the OD service here too.
* From TS (OD base) can you ping to the new IP of OD receiver ?
* From TS (OD base) telnet on port 20014 of the OD Rxer.

It would help to describe in detail the nature of the problem/error you are getting. If you say "deployment is not working" that really does not give much information, does it ? Also please provide the OS you are using, OD version, SP/patch level, etc.

You may want to check your ODNODES and ODRCVR files to see if you need to change the IP address of the machine there, and probably double check that your DNS server is also aware of the IP address change.

Well.. I changed IP in rcvr and odnodes. Still no luck. My DNS entry also changed to new IP. One thing for sure, I could not able to telnet on port 20014 from base server to receiver/ from any other server that is in the same network address. Base server is inside the network where as reciever is in DMZ. And there is no access restriction for receiver. My operting system is win2000. OD version is 5.5.1 and SP2. Latest path # is 1294. Hope someone has solution for it.

Your OD receiver is listening on port 20014, right ? If not, replace 20014 with the correct port number.
If you cannot telnet on port 20014, ("telnet servername 20014"), that would imply that the OD Receiver is not running. Check:
* OD Service is running on Rxer ?
* Run "netstat -an" and check if port 20014 is bound to some process. ?
