Hi All,


Just in the last week I have started to have some strange settings
appear on my XP Pro and Win2k Clients. Not all but some are picking up

a DNS IP of 192.168.1.1, initially this was happening after the users
had logged on and it would change several hours later. All DNS
settings etc are handled via the DHCP server and all this is ok.


Our IP address range is set to 192.168.19.x etc.


Just this morning one client had everything set to 192.168.1.1 i.e. def

gway and DNS and an ip of 192.168.1.110.


I can't see what is happening, but suspect it is at client level as
Linux users seem ok. Latest updates on PC include.

Thanks

Sounds like you have a second dhcp server on your network, the address you
are mentioning is the default used on many wireless router access point, and
also on hardware firewalls, or it might be as simple as someone enabling
internet connection sharing on their workstation
