[geeks] Win2K question

[Gary Nichols]

Hmmm. Every Win2k laptop I've ever seen works just fine going from one 
DHCP-leased network to another.  However!  I have had people put their 
laptop in sleep/suspend, bring it to work, and then not be able to connect 
until I walked around and issued a "ipconfig /renew" on their adapter.

Once powered up, what does "ipconfig /all" show?
