I run a Novell 4.11 network and Microsoft Network with 12 computers attached. I have a Hughes 2-way dish connected to my computer to connect to the Internet (my OS is Win2k). I use OrbitNet to share the Internet with the other users. I get an OrbitNet error that says it cannot bind the DHCP proxy to listen on IP address 90.0.0.1:67. I am not using a DHCP server and I do not have Internet sharing enabled. How can I determine what is useing port 67?

You may not be using DHCP, but it sounds like OrbitNet is. Port 67 is commonly used for DHCP. You really need to talk to OrbitNet to determine what this error message is really saying and what their recommended solution is.

I have already contacted them several times and they have had me check several things, but nothing helped. They do not use port 67 but are concerned about the error.

Looks like or maybe a configuration problem. Have you alter your Novell NetWare logon scripts? If you have then Novell's system administrator or the information systems department will have to check the logon in scripts and correct. Most the time alogon script is a series of instructions that Windows performs when you successfully connect to a NetWare server, and usually are automatically mapped for you. What I'm saying is that your server may be respondiable for the error, anyway. Heaven forbid will they admit it to you, and some of those tech. don't know a hole in the ground! Click Start, click setting, control panel, double click network - The network dialog box appears, click configuration tab, click on Client for Netware Networks, click properties - look at properties' dialog box and/or Client for Netware Networks Properties, click on General,and [check Preferred server] the name of the server that you log on, and look at First network drive (F or E). This option runs the logon scrit when you connect to network. Check the option to turn the option on__ or off__. It needs to be on! Click OK to close, and restart your pc. I hope this will help you, but if it don't let me know and I will try help you find out your problem.It doesn't matter you don't have internet sharing, because I will not let anyone connect to my pc. I don't trust them!
