in defense of @home I wouldnt say the company as an entire is dumb your prob just spoke to a tech person who was not up on the facts. Also lets look at this. the ip you are grabbing is not a static ip as it is in the dhcp range thus you are grabbing fro dhcp. You are setting a dhcp address to a static address on your machine but not on the server hmm maybe he was correct in that you can only grab from dhcp. i wouldnt be so quick to call someone dumb

All you have to do is manually put in another IP address and U assume that user on the cable modem network. @home response was "Static IP address wont work. You can only get a valid IP from DHCP. That shows that 1 they are that dumb and don't know about networking. Or 2 They think everyone else is dumb. Either way it works for me. Dan Miller Security Consultant ZoneOfTrust, Inc
