Re: how to start networking from command line

also tried
%windir%\system32\control.exe netcpl.cpl

nothing came up. I look at the list from
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/192806
I can't see anything else I even tried dropping cpl before the .cpl or
replace it with sys. no joy so far

just for curiosity, I tried in windows 2000 pro PC, same thing happens, no
deviation of behaviour.

MS must have clamped down the OS since then

Try typing: ncpa.cpl and hit Enter.

ncpa.cpl is Network Connections.

There ain't no network.msc nor network.cpl

Also works in the Run command.

Start | Run | Type: ncpa.cpl | Click OK

Hope this helps. Let us know.

instead of clicking on the networking on the start menu or in the
control
panel, how can I start changing property of a network connection?

neither network.msc nor network.cpl works

I don't want to log off and login as the administrator account directly
as I will have the firewall software slow down the PC in the remote
connection mode. the fw is ok as Long as I have login session in place
from console and taken over by remote connection but login initiated by
remote connection will cause the fw to consume excessive high amounts of
CPU
