Hi Mark... Unfortunately there is no 'magic button' ... ;-) 

As far as CSuite is concerned, the names should be changed in

	$CS_ROOT/etc/conf/vars

the default is /var/csuite/etc/conf/vars but you might have set a
different value for CS_ROOT. You should be able to find it by doing a
`locate vars `.

This will insert the new value in scripts and other documents when
they are edited using the CSuite `update` function.... It will also insert
the proper value in CSuite script output. It won't help if you use vi or
pico or some other editor from a shell account... to edit these files.

None of the above really has anything to do with your 'Internet'
connection...

Here at Chebucto, we happen to be in the process of 'retiring' two old
domain names. We've found over 150,000 references to them on our site
(this includes many mailing list messages that have been archived).

The only real solution is to hunt down individual occurences of the old
domain name and make the substitution. The three most significant
instances are: 

(a) in users home directories, 
(b) in our documents and archives and 
(c) in IP directories... 

each of these probably needs to be handled a little differently...

We happen to have several software tools that might be of assistance but
they are available strictly at your own risk... They work for us but we
can offer no guarantee... in some instances they may work as-is but in
most instances they probablly need to be modified to suite your particular
situation.
