All,
My service provider just moved my VPS to a new server, i.e., it now has a new IP address. T manage the server using Virtualmin 6.14 gpl, and I believe that I may have made all of the necessary changes to support the new IP address. However, something is still very wrong.
Specifically, from a command prompt, if I try to ping any IP address, I get 100% packet loss. Basically, I cannot resolve any IP addresses.
Using tcpdump, I checked to see what was happening when I tried to ping 8.8.8.8. The problem appears to be that the source address is the old IP address, not the new one. Thus, no response is ever received.
Please help me figure out what setting I missed!

Re: VPS moved to new server - cannot resolve IP addresses
You have not given any useful information.
Does 'ifconfig' show the correct new IP address?
I would guess the GATEWAY in /etc/sysconfig/network is also no longer valid.
Please read the FAQ http://wiki.centos.org/FAQ/CentOS6
