I am using MT 4.2 and have a dynamic address from my ISP.
Recently my IP address changed and broke all the links to my uploaded images
I had to manually go thru each html page and change the link from the old IP to thje new IP and that seemed to solve the problem - with one annoying exception.
If I do a search for a word, I get the results page, but the image address is still the old IP address. If I open the entry, the image address is correct.
So far, I've checked mt-config.cgi, republished, searched the entire site for the old ip address, manually looked at mt-search.cgi and I can't find the code that's in error.
If you go to http://98.221.161.77:1226/corobri-4/ and search for the phrase "lazy jack," you'll see what I mean.
Opps - a further update - republishing my site apparently reset all the image links to the old IP address. DAMN!
Can someone help me figure out where the problem is?
Thanks

I resolved the issue by reinstalling the pictures - took forever!
Changing the publish path in the preferences should have taken care of this for you.
If you're going to be hosting a serious website, you're going to need to get a static IP address. Dynamic ones are not at all appropriate for anything other than a site hosted on your home PC for your own use.
