Answer» Hello,
I would like to know how to repair\renew\release a connection on an WINDOWS xp pro machine and a limited account. This connection is wired.
Thank You
AlmnI think you will have to know the username and password of an administrator account. If you have a user account that is a local administrator you can use the RUNAS command to do it from a limited account. Do:
runas /user:administrator "ipconfig /release"
runas /user:administrator "ipconfig /renew"
Or just start a command prompt with RUNAS like:
Start -> Run -> "runas /user:administrator cmd.exe"
and you can run IPCONFIG as you wish.
I'm not sure how to do the "repair". I tried using RUNAS to start ncpa.cpl, but it didn't seem to WORK properly.
If you DO NOT have an administrator login, then I don't know of a WAY to use these TOOLS.
