Viggen Viggen Starting to like KiXtart Registered: 2002-03-22 Posts: 110	[Moderator (Sealeopard): Moved thread from 'Scripts' to 'General' forum due to lack of script in body] Hi Guys! Got a small problem... In W2k/Xp I can use netsh to fix this, but now I have 20 Win98SE Laptops I need to have a funktion on. I have some users that rotate between 10 network and 9 of those doesn't use DHCP. My thought was that I would make a menu, that displays some choices and if a user press "1" he gets the address for network 1 and then reboot. If he presses "D" it will set the computer to DHCP and then reboot. Any ideas? Is it possible, or do I have to teach all users how to change this manually? T.I.A Viggen [ 11.

If we do a little searching here, we could find some potential solutions for you.. changing from static routing env. to DHCP Look at the note about the Microsoft Recommendation. This should be "undoable" too. Finally - found a script to set DHCP Static to DHCP HTH, Kent _________________________ Utilize these resources: UDFs (Full List) KiXtart FAQ & How to's
