I've installed a firewall (Juniper NetScreen-5GT) The LEDs indicate that the
hardware is properly configured, but I can't access the internet. The manual
says "change your tcp/ip settings to obtain it's IP adress automatically from
the NetScreen-fGT via DHCP. Anybody know how to do that? (XP Home). Thanks

Jim,

With Windows XP, access the TCP/IP Properties wizard (Settings - Network
Connections - Local Area Connection - Properties - Internet Protocol -
Properties). On the General tab, select "Obtain an IP address automatically"
and "Obtain DNS server addresses automatically".
