Hi
IP address and related issue in WinXP here, http://www.ezlan.net/debug.html
However the above is rather general the actual final settings would depends
on the nature of the relations with the Dell Server (there are many kinds
with many variations).
You did not indicate what OS is running on the Server, and what is the
purpose of the whole arrangement.
