Iznogoud Posted August 8, 2006 Share Posted August 8, 2006 You can change the IP adres with the command NETSH, typ it in a dos box with /? to get further detail.If you mean the network name like Domain name you can use a command wich is getting explained here:http://support.microsoft.com/kb/150493/You can run these command just with the RUN function in AutoIT.This will give you a headstart i hope Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HELSAY Posted August 8, 2006 Share Posted August 8, 2006 You can check the information inside the registry : for computer name --> run Regedit Then Edit/Search and fill in your computer name... You'll see some keys (I think the main one is hklm/software/microsoft/windows nt/currentversion/winlogon/DefaulDomainName) that you can read or write in autoit (regread/regwrite) The same thing for IP (static or dhcp is reported in the registry) A+ Hels@y Logicae Homo EstFemina Homo EstFemina Logicae Est Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iznogoud Posted August 9, 2006 Share Posted August 9, 2006 Hi,Yes I began with Regedit, but it doesn't work even after a computer reboot.You can't change your ip within the registry. Try my suggestions, they work and they are even explained by Microsoft. They can't be that difficult for someone who has never used them before.With Netsh you can do alot of thins like controlling your firewall etc. You will see.

Shao Posted August 9, 2006 Author Share Posted August 9, 2006 Try this:http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?...593&sd=techIt uses netdom.exe utility wich works great if you have XPI tried netdom.exe and it fails because my computer isn't in a domain.My computer and others are in the same Network and none of them have a domain name. If I try to give them a domain Name, so I have an error.How can I do to use netdom with no domain name ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
