I was not trying to impose my "moral" standards on you,
I was simply wearing my network administrator's hat.
When I find that a machine in a DHCP-controlled network
has grabbed a fixed address then I will discuss the matter
with the owner of that machine or with his manager. If the
request is valid then I will allocate a fixed address to that
PC. If the request cannot be justified then I will take
appropriate action to prevent disruption to the rest of the
user community. So far you have simply said that you want
to modify your IP address so that you cannot be identified.
Why?

Thanks for your help but I don't need moralism I would like to know how to do
It, my DHCP doesn't change my IP so I would like to known if It's, possible
to do It, I know that I have to write some numeber in the DNS but I don't
know what's the number!
If someone could say to me I will thanks them!

Setting a fixed IP address in a DHCP environment is likely
to cause address conflicts and will get your network administrators
very upset. Don't do it! Changing your IP address would be
pointless anywhay: The DHCP server gives you a different one
after a while, and the network administrator does not need your
IP address to find out who you are.
