Thanks for the reply Shay! Sorry, to be more specific: I wasn't using the DHCP server because I wanted to map ftp and ssh ports through to my computer, for when I'm not near it. But I just made a DHCP Location, and another Manual Location, and switching between them and the previously existing ones doesn't achieve anything, nor does changing the DHCP Client ID. Restarting with the DHCP Location selected results in a working network, but on sleep, the problem returns. If I then look at the Network prefpane, the details for IP Address, Subnet Mask, and Router have disappeared -- the text "(Provided by DHCP Server)" has replaced them, and remains there after changing the location and Client ID and so forth. The computer name in the Sharing prefpane was always a single word, and varying both the word and capitalisation doesn't appear to help. :( -Ry [EMAIL PROTECTED]
