When I go to the sharing preference in server 10.2.6, the network address is shown to be "server" instead of 192.168.0.200. It's the one that has the edit button next to it and if you click on edit it takes you to the network preferences window. This means that my printer sharing does not work since the address of the shared printers is Xerox@server instead of Xerox@192.168.0.200. When I enable remote login, it says to connect to the server, type ssh@server instead of ssh@192.168.0.200. I think the problem may be related to the fact that the machine had the logic board replaced and it now thinks it has an extra ethernet port that no longer exists. How can I get the network address to show the IP address of the server instead so that I can get printer sharing to work again?
