RE: path to client not found

OK, just 1 computer (with wireless connection) is not found the others (5 up
to now) are OK (with and without DHCP address release and one with wireless
connection). However something with the setup is still wrong, see point 3.

1. no error event was logged.

2. ipconfig/all:

3. OK, I addapded the settings for the ip configuration (had to change the
dns on the lan card and remove the ones provided from our provider 128.xxx).
but still:

C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator>nslookup
*** Can't find server name for address 192.168.1.2: Non-existent domain
Default Server: UnKnown
Address: 192.168.1.2

Remark: i am not setting up any e-mail server functionallity (done by each
user individually).

4. did it with connect computer wizard (and a user is also created)
