I am runnig Windows xp and am learning to troubleshoot
TCP/IP problems. I am unable to use the
ipconfig/all|more command or even ipconfig/? from the
command prompt. ipconfig will run without using any
switches however it runs to fast to read. if any one can
help thanks.

Start > run > cmd opens a command window. Then in the command window type
ipconfig /all.

There is a space between the "ipconfig" and the "/"

Q
 
If you use Ipconfig from run box you need to start cmd.exe first
type this instead " cmd /k ipconfig /? "

The space is required if you type the "ipconfig" command directly in
the Start | Run box, without opening a command prompt window.

Oops, that's what I get for assuming everyone runs it from a command prompt
:-)
