Command to change my IP #95908 28/08/04 06:31 AM

I need to use two different IP's with my DCC connections and I don't want to change them manually. Why two different IP's? One is for normal DCC connections and other is for initiating DCC through ssh tunnel (Secure SHell). For this I need to set my IP to loopback address 127.0.0.1 so that the other end of my ssh connection can connect to it's own localhost port which is forwarded to me through the ssh-tunnel. This works fine. It's just that I don't want to keep changing my IP manually. It would be nice to have an alias like /sshchat to do the whole thing.
