My company's network is set up to dynamically assign IP addresses when the user logs on. I am currently running Win 2000 and I am trying to create another user for my machine that will have a static IP address. The problem is when I make the change in that user's (the static IP) profile, it makes the change globally to all users. When I log in under my company username, the static IP settings are present.
Is there a way to set up two seperate profiles, one that will automatically obtain an IP address, and the other that will have a static IP address.

Thanks,Jason
