RE: Communication question...

Ken,

I wasn't even aware that OS/400 could function as a DHCP client.  If it
can, you would generally disable this and assign it a static address.
When you configure your DHCP server, omit an appropriate range of
addresses in your subnet for those devices which have a static address.
This would generally include servers, network printers, and any other
similar device.

When you say that the address of the /400 has changed, what specifically
are you seeing?  I'm intrigued.

Regards,
Andy Nolen-Parkhouse
