Local Area Connection

[Guest]

Hi,

I'm going to set DNS at the properties of Local Area Connection for XPe. If
I choose the properties of Local Area Connection, a dialog called "LOCAL AREA
CONNECTION PROPERTIES" pops up, then I choose "Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)"
and click button "properties", a pop-up windows with title "Microsoft TCP/IP"
shows:

"In order to configure TCP/IP, you must install and enable a network adapter
card."

I've already installed the driver for the network adapter card and it works
fine. I guess maybe I miss some components to show the graphic interface to
configure DNS on the client side. I included the following components for
TCP/IP in the XPe image:

Explore Shell
Netshell
Nettcpip Info
Network Configuration
TCP/IP NetStat Command
TCP/IP Networking
TCP/IP Networking with File Sharing and Client for MS Networks

Could you tell me what components were missed?

Or, if we could set the DNS client with netshell. But I don't know how to
set DNS with netshell. Here is a link:
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/...SXP/home/using/productdoc/en/netsh_int_ip.asp
But I didn't see how to set the DNS with netsh.

To set DNS client, it seems we have to check:
"Use this connection's DNS suffix in DNS registeration", which is located at
"Advanced TCP/IP setting" and tab "DNS".

Thanks.

Also add:
Network Configuration, [Visibility=200]
Network Command Shell, [Visibility=1000]
Network Command Shell Interface Context, [Visibility=1000]

Examples:
"netsh interface ip set dns name="Local Area Connection" source=dhcp" (to get dns from dhcp)
"netsh interface ip set dns "Local Area Connection" static 10.0.0.1 primary" (to set static dns)

Thank you so much, KM. DNS works now.
