Put simply, you can't change the domain name of your 9iAS box, and nor can you change it's IP address. Well, the doco. says that changing either is 'unsupported'... and I certainly don't know how to do it.

For a laptop that travels between different networks, you might try installing into a virtual machine (think Vmware or Connectix's VirtualPC). The real laptop can do what it needs to do, but your virtual machine remains isolated and unchanged. It had better be a powerful laptop, though.
