Thanks Bill for your reply about store_path.
With a little massaging it finally worked. 

Now I am going to show my total inexperience with this product.

We are running slony 1.2.14 by the way.  I am running it in development
where I have the luxury of totally shutting down the provider machine and
restarting if need be.  This is what I had to do to restart the slons
pointing to the new I/P address and now we are up again. 
  Before I performed this 'last resort' I attempted to 
Restart the slons by simply reissuing the slon command:

  Slon slonypractice "dbname=whatever user=postgres host=newipaddress"

And of course I got a 'slon already running - duplicate pk' type of error
There must be a better way of restarting the slons short of killing and
Restarting the machine.  I tried 'DROP NODE' couldn't get that to work.
I'd appreciate some insight on this.

Is there a document within or without www.slony.info that has basic 
'how to' administrative tasks that I can refer to? 
Thanks for your time.

You don't say what version of Slony you're running, but newer versions
don't need the "store listen" at all.

However, a new "store path" should take care of things.  You may need
to restart the slons to get them to notice.
