Relevant links for DHCP on 98/Me (a bit off topic, I know, but relevant to the hoardes of us using Windows as an SR client): http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/Q220/8/74.ASP (discusses *helpful* IP Autoconfiguration support in Win9x, and how to kill it. This seems to work.) http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/Q217/0/35.ASP (how to make 98/Me release DHCP information on shutdown. Interesting reading, sounds nice and official, but doesn't actually work :) I ended up using hardware profiles to get around this issue. Another appealing option is just to go back to Win95, which worked great with SR in my experience :) Dan Hitchcock CCNA, MCSE Network Engineer Xylo, Inc.

Pete, I don't think that it's a route issue(was it?) more than it's a DHCP issue. There was a bug (since fixed) where the OS would not give up an address upon shutdown or on bootup if it wasn't allowed to keep/couldn't find a DHCP server. I did a quick check for the Q# on MS site, but no luck. Anyone have that? Robert - - Robert P.
