Or you could go to Start...Run...and type wntipcfg. Or even make a short cut on desktop.

winipcfg is not part of Win2K.

Running ipconfig from start>run is ineffective because the dos prompt window will close immediately after ipconfig finishes running.

It is not winipcfg...it is wntipcfg and funny that it is installed on my Win2K Pro. So if it is not a part of...where did it come from...MS gremlin maybe.

After looking I must apologize....apparently I picked it up somewhere....not sure now..but I do have wntipcfg that shows up in Accessories and I never place anything there, had to be an install.

open a command prompt first -> Start>Run>cmd

then type ipconfig (use /? for help)
