If it is your DHCP server in your home network, just bind the N800's MAC to specific IP address in the dhcpd.conf file. For example, host N800 { hardware ethernet 08:00:2b:4c:59:23; fixed-address 192.168.1.222; } The same address will always be assigned via DHCP for your N800 this way. -- =W On Mon, Mar 17, 2008 at 3:38 PM, Chuck Robey <chuckr at chuckr.org> wrote: > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- > Hash: SHA1 > > I thank everyone for all the help, I went and downloaded the most minimal > of items, the pager "less", and it just built right up without the least > problems.
