if you aren't sure what dhcp is, then I'm guessing your win2k box isn't running a dhcp server. you will need you set a static ip, which you can do with something like ifconfig eth0 192.168.101.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 Pete -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
