IP Address changeI need to know if there is a way to allow a user to change the IP address of
a laptop PC without having administrative access. Anyone know of a quick solution to this? Users are connecting to multiple IP devices, and need to enter a different IP Address to get access to each. Thanks in advance.... kevin Merrick wrote:

Not sure how it handles user v. admin...there may be a good way to script it, tho. Again, why ain't these people using DHCP??? Leafing through microsoft.public.win2000.security, I read a message from
