===============
winipcfg (typical PC)
node type broadcast
wins proxy enabled
IP address 192.168.1.2
subnet mask 255.255.255.0
default gateway 192.168.1.1
DHCP server 192.168.1.1

Mmmm..
I have everything set to use DHCP (I believe)
I do not know much about IP allocation, less about masks {:=(
Everything on the LAN is 192.168.1.[..] presumably from the adsl
router/switch/dhcp, although there is another switch, which is auto
setting, between that and the PCs.
I notice the loopback address is outside this range (?)
