Way to set IP address

Hi,
Is there a way by which the IP address of a terminal can be set through
code.

thanks in advance

Manoj,

I would take a look at the WMI namespaces, which are accessible through
the System.Manageme nt namespace, specifically the
Win32_NetworkAd apterConfigurat ion class (this is a WMI class, not a .NET
class).

Assuming that the network adapter has a static IP already, and you are
assigning an IP from the same subnet and whatnot, it should work no problem.
However, if it is using DHCP, then you will have to make sure to set things
like the DNS servers, the subnet mask, etc, etc.

Hope this helps.

Thanks Nicholas
we are currently using WMI for the same purpose.(Sorry missed out mentioning
this before)
The same method EnableStatic of Win32_NetworkAd apterConfigurat ion seems to
have sme problems with
SP1 on Windows XP
So need some other solution other than WMI
Thanks

If I have a machine with 3 virtual IP addresses (192.168.1.), how can I start 3 instances of the same RMI application (each started with different properties/configs), each listening on the port 1234, but each instance binds to a different ip address. that is to say: instance #1 binds to 192.168.1.5/port 1234 instance #2 binds to 192.168.1.6/port 1234 instance #3 binds to 192.168.1.7/port 1234
