Can't enter IP address in TCP/IP properties
A user at my workplace has a win98 pc which is working
fine on our win2000server domain. It has a manually assigned ip address. I now need to change the tcp/ip properties in order to point to our gateway to give him internet access. The problem is that all the ip address fields (for host address, dns, gateway...the lot) are blank - and I don't mean greyed-out. If I try and type anything into them, nothing appears. At first I thought there might be some weird display problem and that the numbers were appearing in a white font, but if I try and type a number in (for example, to add a dns server)and hit ADD, it shows the new entry as being 0.0.0.0 Has anyone witnessed anything like this before? All I can think to try is to remove the tcp/ip protocol and reinstall it, but if this doesn't fix it then he'll be stuck with a pc that can't connect to our network. I'd then be left doing a full reinstall of windows and all the apps......uuuggggghhh. TIA John H. |
