It may well be that they configure their server to only insert pre-approved PC addresses into the name server. If you get IP addresses quite different from the rest, that's one clue in that direction. Do the other PCs always get the same addresses? It could be that DHCP doesn't update DNS, it could be that the DNS entries are static, and their DHCP server is configured to dole out pre-arranged addresses. You really need to speak to your network admin. -- (This box runs FC6, my others run FC4 & FC5, in case that's important to the thread.) Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored. I read messages from the public lists.
