    hi,

    I'm new here and I just bought the Desktop for Mac. It's a nice Prog but I really wonder why I have to stop Internet Sharing to get an IP from DHCP.

    Details: Internet Sharing is turned on for Host-Network. ifconfig tells me that OSX has the IP 192.168.2.1, when I start Win2k it won't change. As soon as I stop InetSharing my OSX gets 10.37.129.2. After that I can start InetSharing again and everything works fine!

    Why is this ? Does it has to be like this? Its very irritating. I would appreciate if I could leave my sharing settings instead of turning off before booting win and on after boot!

    Robert
