Default Re: Connecting WindowsME to a Windows 2000 network

> I want to connect a Windows ME machine to a Windows2000 network with DHCP

enabled. I figured i could just use the guest account and make sure the
right protocols are installed but the setup is different in ME than in 2000.
What right protocols should i have installed and what configuration should
i have. It this task at all possible without having to add the user in the
server?

it'a actually the connection in general. the rest of the workstations are connected via workgroup. Should i have checked the server for a domain?

If there's no domain, then there's no domain, just stick with the workgroup,
but you'll have to be a little more specific, what don't you understand
about ME settings? What are you looking for?

ipconfig in winME? I think you ment to say winipcfg. Did you try to just
refresh? Also sometimes its the simplest solutions, do you have a link
light on your NIC?

> For one thing, how and where do i set it up so that my laptop can see the

existing network? I have left the IP address alone to be configured
automatically and did not enable the DNS. I also noticed that the NetBIOS
over TCP/IP settings is greyed out. IPconfig shows no subnet, no IP, and no
default gateway. I know that there is something i am missing but what is it?
