If the system has detected a conflict for IP address with the system hardware address and the interface has been disabled. I have tried to uninstall/reinstall Windows 95, NIC card and TCP/IP and yet the problem still exist. I am currently running Novell NetWare 5.1 for OS. I am able to log into the network, but denied access through IP. What could be the problem?
Please notify me as soon as possible. Thanks in advance.

Since we upgraded our server from 4.11 to 5.1 the system has detected a conflict for IP only with the Windows 95 workstations. I was able to solve the problem by installing Windows 2000 Professional instead of Windows 95 OS. What could cause Windows 95 workstation IP to conflict?

It sounds like you simply have an IP address conflict. You can either change your static IP on your workstation, or if you want to find out who swiped your address, record the hardware address mentioned in the error, then go to your novell server and on the monitor screen scroll through connections until you find a "network address" entry that matches that address, then go tell that person to change their IP.

Use winipcfg select your adapter and check the ip. If it is a 169 number then your dhcp is not working. Try giving it a fixed ip in the same range of your network.
