I am about to massively clone an Arch workstation.
It has a full Gnome DE and some productivity software.
I need to:
1. change hostnames
2. change static ips
3. regenerate ssh keys
Is there anything else I should do?
I remember that I had to change the MAC addresses (static udev) of the network interfaces when I cloned Debian in the past.
Do I need to do the same with Arch?

I'm trying to get networkmanager with kdeplasma-applets-networkmanager on KDE4. I got it installed and (mostly) working, but seem to be having DNS issues. I can connect to sites via IP, but not via name. I read the arch wiki on networkmanager, but quite frankly, some of it made no sense to me. So anyone have any idea what I did wrong? Here's my /etc/rc.conf before I switched back to wicd:
# -----------------------------------------------------------------------
# NETWORKING
# -----------------------------------------------------------------------
#
# HOSTNAME: Hostname of machine. Should also be put in /etc/hosts
#
HOSTNAME="d420test"
# Use 'ifconfig -a' or 'ls /sys/class/net/' to see all available interfaces.
#
# Interfaces to start at boot-up (in this order)
# Declare each interface then list in INTERFACES
# - prefix an entry in INTERFACES with a ! to disable it
# - no hyphens in your interface names - Bash doesn't like it
#
# DHCP: Set your interface to "dhcp" (eth0="dhcp")
# Wireless: See network profiles below
#
#Static IP example
#eth0="eth0 192.168.0.2 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.0.255"
eth0="dhcp"
wlan0="dhcp"
INTERFACES=(!eth0 !wlan0)
# Routes to start at boot-up (in this order)
# Declare each route then list in ROUTES
# - prefix an entry in ROUTES with a ! to disable it
#
gateway="default gw 192.168.0.1"
ROUTES=(!gateway)
# Enable these network profiles at boot-up. These are only useful
# if you happen to need multiple network configurations (ie, laptop users)
# - set to 'menu' to present a menu during boot-up (dialog package required)
# - prefix an entry with a ! to disable it
#
# Network profiles are found in /etc/network.d
#
# This now requires the netcfg package
#
#NETWORKS=(main)
# -----------------------------------------------------------------------
# DAEMONS
# -----------------------------------------------------------------------
#
# Daemons to start at boot-up (in this order)
# - prefix a daemon with a ! to disable it
# - prefix a daemon with a @ to start it up in the background
#
DAEMONS=(syslog-ng !network hal networkmanager @autofs @cups @crond @sshd netfs !httpd !myssqld !webmin !portmap !fam !postfix)
