I recently switched to Win2k from Window's ME and I used to use winipcfg.exe to figure out Adaptor settings but I don't know the name of the Program in Win2k that acomplishes this. Thanks

From the command line type, ipconfig /all. it'll give you all the info you got from winipcfg just in text format.

Or search in microsoft's windows 2000 page for a tool that is the exact same program as the win9x winipcfg!
It's an extra tool or utility or something....it's in there!

If you use ipconfig, type ipconfig /release to release your IP(s), and ipconfig /renew to renew :)

Ipconfig /?

Windows 2000 IP Configuration





USAGE:

ipconfig [/? | /all | /release [adapter] | /renew [adapter]

| /flushdns | /registerdns

| /showclassid adapter

| /setclassid adapter [classidtoset] ]



adapter Full name or pattern with '*' and '?' to 'match',

* matches any character, ? matches one character.

Options

/? Display this help message.

/all Display full configuration information.

/release Release the IP address for the specified adapter.

/renew Renew the IP address for the specified adapter.

/flushdns Purges the DNS Resolver cache.

/registerdns Refreshes all DHCP leases and re-registers DNS names

/displaydns Display the contents of the DNS Resolver Cache.

/showclassid Displays all the dhcp class IDs allowed for adapter.

/setclassid Modifies the dhcp class id.



The default is to display only the IP address, subnet mask and

default gateway for each adapter bound to TCP/IP.



For Release and Renew, if no adapter name is specified, then the IP address

leases for all adapters bound to TCP/IP will be released or renewed.



For SetClassID, if no class id is specified, then the classid is removed.



Examples:

> ipconfig ... Show information.

> ipconfig /all ... Show detailed information

> ipconfig /renew ... renew all adapaters

> ipconfig /renew EL* ... renew adapters named EL....

> ipconfig /release *ELINK?21* ... release all matching adapters,

eg. ELINK-21, myELELINKi21adapter.
