When I type ipconfig in the run window I see the black window open for a split second and goes away ??

That is because it is a command line tool and not a Windows application so it starts a command prompt, runs the command and then closes. This is the correct behavior. If you want to see the results start cmd from the Run item then type in ipconfig /? to learn about the parameters it takes or ipconfig /all for a full result immediately. Mike Brannigan |

Open the RUN window.. type CMD and then press <enter> You should now see the 'command' window.. now try typing ipconfig in there.. "dwolf"

You can create a new shortcut, using this in the Create Shortcut location box: C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe /k %windir%\system32\ipconfig.exe You can name the shortcut Ipconfig, Internet Protocol Configuration, or whatever... "dwolf"

Another option might be WNTIPCFG - download.microsoft.com/download/win2000platform/wntipcfg/1.00.0.1/nt5/en-us/WntIpcfg_setup.exe It's a Windows app (ie not command line) and although originally for Win2K it definitely works under XP - I haven't tried it with Vista. LSR |

You must run the ipconfig program from a command prompt window. In the run window type cmd in the resulting black command window type ipconfig. Michael "LSR"

Your (top-posted) response makes no sense - I'm talking about the windows GUI program WNTIPCFG, not the command line IPCONFIG. LSR |

Much easier: In Start:Run, type "cmd /k ipconfig" (without the quotes) The /k tells the command window to stay open you can then see the outpout from ipconfig. Jay. (remove dashes for legal email address) |
