Dear All,

Got a weird on here, don't how to get around it.... the Subject line is
technically true, but not totally...

I've got a laptop that is connecting wirelessly to a domain, usual practice,
turn the latop on, wait a second or two for the wireless card to spring to
life, and then log on...

For some reason recently, it has been upable to log on, because windows
isn't remember the I.P address (192.168.1.x) which has been manually set, so
I get the error message about the profile will not be able to be stored...

So, it boots up, I access the networking section, repair the connection, get
my IP back and I'm fine, but when logging off, it doesn't save the settings,
so next reboot I'm getting it again...

Anyway around this? is there a setting or command in the machine I can tell
it to take the settings and store them to the profile, so when I next boot
up it is sorted?

Regards
Paul.
 
Re: Can't Log on to Server.

Having domain do You have DHCP also? May be autoassigning IP from DHCP will
help You?

Other idea, it can be some malware or virus - something with goal to make
little mess. Check Your laptop with AV.

Re: Can't Log on to Server.

I have the IP Address statically assigned on that machine, even if I switch
to DHCP it can't remember I've switched as it doesn't save the settings out
on logoff/restart..

I have done a full virus check and spyware check...

Any other ideas?
