If it's rogue, they may not have visibility to it or even know it's there. Had a video phone doing this garbage once on a network, only when it was faster to answer than the Windows guy's DHCP servers in the datacenter did anyone notice, and it took getting a look at one of the affected machines to really start figuring out what was going on that day... I got dragged into it and the Unix systems at that employer didn't even handle the DHCP... it just kept growing into a larger and larger fire-drill until I and one other person simultaneously went and looked at some poor businessperson/non-techie's machine to figure out what the heck was going on. Then it was the usual, "Okay, who plugged what into where today, folks?" Inquisition. That only took about five minutes. :-) Nate -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
