[Ricardo Rodriguez <rik73106@xxxxxxxxx>]

Actually I can not tell.

I had this prob. long time ago with v6.4 and now with
7.0 (I switched to RD for a while becuase of that).

I am running in a huge network (I think more that
1,000 workstation) and I'm kind of far to the network
admin (Im just a simple user here).

This network runs with NT and IP's are dinamically,
when I really tried to make it work long time ago I
tried all available DHCP clients on 6.4

Anyway I just got my v7.1 today and will make a whole
new installation starting from scratch tomorrow
afternoon, so lets hope everything is going to be ok.

I was thinking about using all the default settings on
my tomorrow installation.  Any extra suggestion to
consider?
