On my Thinkpad T30 Laptops, WIN XP PRO SP2, I want to assign names to both the 'wired ip address' and the 'wireless ip address'. I just ran XP's sysdm.cpl and used Computer Names option to rename one Laptop to David-3. Pinging that computer causes the response with the 'wire' ip address. What I cannot seem to control with COMPUTER NAME in CPL is 'which ip address' am I changing the 'name'. Any help is really appreciated Dave-s >> Stay informed about: Computer names -wire and wireless
