Since a few days I’m using a plugin in eclipse which allows vi like editing. It’s called vrapper and can be found under http://vrapper.sourceforge.net. It is a very good light weight alternative to commercial vi plugins. In my opinion there are not more disadvantages as in other vi plugins.
Sometimes it has hangers, this means it does not fall back to the main state instead it hangs in any command mode. In this rare cases normally helps to restart the plugin with the icon in eclipse.
The installation is very simple, only add the stable update site (http://vrapper.sourceforge.net/update-site/stable). Or if not possible to use the update site just download the file from http://sourceforge.net/projects/vrapper/files/, just copy the files into the plugins directory .

If you like to use vi commands look in and check it out.

For a Project I hade change the DNS Server settings on several client computers. All Clients hade fixed IP and DNS Settings on the clients and the customer want not to change to a DHCP.

And after 2 minutes searching look what I fond under: “Computer Configuration – Administrative Templates – Network – DNS Client – DNS Servers”
