Ip Change

[TimBS]

Can Anyone help

I still need some help changing the IP address on a local PC

The code I have used for IP example of 66.33.4.60 on a WinNT machine is

RegWrite("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\E100B6\Parameters\Tcpip", "IPAddress","REG_BINARY","336362E33332E342E3630")

The registry looks right but when I look at the IP under the network protocol the previous IP has been overwritten with spaces.

I would also like to do this job on Win 95,98 and 2000 PCs

Thanks

look into using netsh on win2k

Thanks for your help, but I am not familiar with netsh. Can you give me some extra help on the command I would use

hope it helps

Thanks for the help with netsh --- it worked great on my 2000 machine. Next problem is how do I change the IP on an NT or Win 9x machine

Hi Tim,

Try this. copy paste to text editor and name it something.vbs

Dim WSHShell, NList, N, IPAddress, IPMask, DefaultGateway, IPValue, RegLoc

Set WSHShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")

RegTCP = "HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\VxD\MSTCP\"

Domain = RegTCP & N & "\Domain"

EnableDNS = RegTCP & N & "\EnableDNS"

HostName = RegTCP & N & "\HostName"

NameServer = RegTCP & N & "\NameServer"

WSHShell.RegWrite Domain,""

WSHShell.RegWrite EnableDNS,"0"

WSHShell.RegWrite HostName,""

WSHShell.RegWrite NameServer,""

NList = array("0000","0001","0002","0003","0004","0005","0006", _

"0007","0008","0009","0010")

On Error Resume Next

RegLoc = "HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Class\NetTrans\"

For Each N In NList

IPValue = "" 'Resets variable

IPAddress = RegLoc & N & "\IPAddress"

IPMask = RegLoc & N & "\IPMask"

DefaultGateway = RegLoc & N & "\DefaultGateway"

IPValue = WSHShell.RegRead(IPAddress)

If (IPValue <> "") and (IPValue <> "0.0.0.0") then

WSHShell.RegWrite IPAddress,"0.0.0.0"

WSHShell.RegWrite IPMASK,"0.0.0.0"

WSHShell.RegWrite DefaultGateway,""

end If

Next

WScript.Quit ' Tells the script to stop and exit.

Good luck

Hi,

Thanks for the code for Win 9X. With the supplied help I have now got Win 2000 and Win 9X working great. I have only one to go ie WinNT. Any chance of help here? Obviously, none of the previously supplied solutions will work.

Cheers Tim

Finally all solved by using REG.exe from the NT Resource kit. Thanks for the help
