win2k ip batch file
read this yesterday in win2kmag, if you need to change static ip’s on a nic, or you have to swich between static and dhcp alot, then this command will do you wonders (like it did for me).

netsh interface ip set address “” static

use ‘netsh interface ip set dns’ or ‘netsh interface ip set wins’ to set those address, or replace the static above with dhcp to revert to dynamic addressing. Just slap this command in a batch file and your good to go. I’ve been playing around with the netsh command since then, and it’s rather interesting what you can do with it. netsh has inline help, and look up this specific help article at win2kmag.com and reference InstantDoc ID 20278
