Winipcfg for XP?

[Aloke Prasad]

Is there a WINIPCFG or similar program for XPPro?

What is an easy way to release and renew IP addresses from the DHCP server?

Hi,

There is one that is similar to the one you're used to in Win95,98, Me and
so on.
It can be found here.

Aloke,

try: IPCONFIG

To release and renew DHCP IP addresses, use:

ipconfig /release
ipconfig /renew

The GUI way to do what you want is to double-click your connection icon
in the tray and then select the Support tab. There is a repair button
there to refresh DHCP. Ignore stupid error message about dnscache. The
Details button gives you the winipcfg screen.

Use IPCONFIG from a DOS prompt (type "CMD" at the
Start/Run line)

Thanks to all who replied. I didn't know that the W2K tool would work in
XP.

The Tips page is nice. Found lots of useful things there...
