duplicate network exists

[dshodson]

i get this message duplicate network exists and a little yellow yield sign in the bottom left corner of my windows desktop when i use a VPN client that i need to access a specific server. it only happens with my main computer and not my laptop so i dont know why it is happening?

Never seen that message before, but I'm imagining that you have duplicate subnets perhaps, per adapter?

ipconfig /all and paste results please. Including when VPN is up.

You need to pull up a command prompt first by typing 'cmd' then in the command prompt you type 'ipconfig /all'.

As far as the other issue goes, are you sure that the name of your PC doesn't match one on the remote network?

"ipconfig /all > results.txt 2>&1"

Open results.txt and copy/paste from there.

Change your computer name to something other than rex though it's a bit hard to imagine that there is a machine named rex on a .gov domain but it is certainly possible. It will tell you if that is the problem anyway.

 

[dshodson]

well the government must have a rex out there
who would have guessed it

anyone know how to make sure u have all of your previous java versions removed

im having another prb getting a web based prg to run that uses java and i think i just havent complete uninstalled a previous version

control panel add/remove prg seems fine but im suspicious something is lurking
