We have a laptop user running W98 who works out of our main site (with one router ip address xxx.xxx.1.xxx) and visits a remote site (with a different router ip address xxx.xxx.3.xxx). In order to access her files on our NT4.0 server from both sites, she must make IP address, Gateway and DNS entry changes in TCP/IP properties on her W98 laptop each visit (I tried hw profiles, doesn't work for network changes). If I upgrade her to W2k will that eliminate the need for those manual changes at each site? We use an lmhost file (necessary at the remote site).
