Subnet Mask error

[barak via OfficeKB.com]

Hi all,

For some time I've been geting call from windows 98 users that they can't
connect to the domain.
when logging in to their local account and trying the IPCONFIG command I've
found out that
instead of having the subnet mask of 255.255.255.0 -instead 255.255.0.0 only
show.

Can somebody tell me the problem and the possible solution?

Cheers,

Barak

If you post in a proper group like for Windows 98, you will probably get a
faster answer. Also, the command for Windows 98 is winipcfg.
