Hi guys, I have some connection problem when I try to connect my personal FTP client, Xp OS, to my FTP server, CE, and IP is static. To connect I need to shutdown my application in CE, run the FTP service, it was off, make a connection by XP, shutdown FTP service in CE, run my FTP server and login: no exception. Else if DHCP is enabled I haven't problem. Some one has some idea ? I didn't add at this question the source because is very long. thanks, fabbrit
The servers and so on have *no* idea whether the IP addresses they are connected to are assigned by DHCP or not. My guess is that you are not properly assigning a subnet mask or gateway when you are assigning them statically. Paul T.

I Paul, thanks for your answer. Regarding the subnet mask I'm OK, else about gateway I'don't make any actions on CE server and Xp machine also. I just apply a static ip for each machine and same subnet mask. thank, fabbrit [quoted text, click to view] "Paul G.

Yes, and if you set the wrong subnet mask, things won't work. The same with gateway. You've verified that the same subnet is being assigned by you statically as what was assigned by the DHCP server? That's not clear from your message. Otherwise, it could be that you are not assigning DNS server or WINS server addresses when you are statically assigning things, but the DHCP server *is* assigning one or both of those addresses. This seems less-likely, but I guess it's possible. Paul T.

Hi Paul, and I'sorry for long replay time. So, do you think that should be better to force wins and dns server anyway, when I use static IP ? If 'Yes' I'll found in win32 libraries some functions to do this [iprtrmib.h, iphlpapi.h, winsock2.h] ? Should be better before assing a static IP disable DHCP ? But assigning a new IP DHCP is not automatically disabled or needs an imperative command to do it ? Regarding first part of your replay I'm sure that when I set static IP in effect I make a change of IP and SUBNETMASK and before to esc from the method I check that my changing is effective. bye fabbrit [quoted text, click to view] "Paul G.

Sorry, I don't understand the question. When switching between DHCP and static IP addressing, you should set the registry entries for static, including changing the state of the EnableDHCP registry entry, the IP address, the subnet mask, the gateway address, the DNS addresses, if any, and the WINS addresses, if any, then REBIND the adapter. That's all it should take.

The most-likely explanation for this not working is that you've done something wrong, so I want you to verify that the static addresses you are setting are of the same form as the dynamically-assigned ones from DHCP. Tell us what the settings are in both cases... Paul T.
