Re: change node on ipconfig

Sorry about that, it basically is a continuation, only I'm no longer directly
on the same LAN as the server.
Now we have client-router-internet-router-server
This computer runs XP Pro, is connected to a router in the office, but also
has a wireless card, so we can run it directly connected to the internet.
This ipconfig was done while connected to the LAN.

The firewall setting is just the standard Windows reccomended setting.
