The problem that I have is that I travel
everyweek and hook my laptop onto clients networks so DHCP is
needed. That said, perhaps there is a way (I think there is) that I can force my DHCP server at home to always provide the same internal IP address to my laptop right, by specifying the MAC address or something? David Williams

It's set to DHCP and is connected to the same network as the BackupPC server.Is there any hope you can get a static IP address assignment for your laptop, so that the BackupPC server doesn't have to 'hunt' for it?This is what we do everywhere, and it solves the problem perfectly. |
