I don't think so, but I'm not quite sure I understand this anyway. So |
| 13 |
you have a DHCP server you don't control (@work?) and it's not giving |
| 14 |
you the IP you want but something else---"abd" in what way? And it |
| 15 |
remembers your PCMCIA card's MAC address...so you have another port in |
| 16 |
your laptop and want to use that instead? |
| 17 |
I'd think if the DHCP server gives you an andress that doesn't work in |
| 18 |
your subnet then it's a server configuration issue and should be fixed |
| 19 |
there. |
