Hi

I am using RasAPI to dial into a small 4 pc network.  Static Ip
address range is 10.0.0.1 to 10.0.0.4 on subnet 255.255.255.0

When I dial using RasAPI (Delphi 7) I do manage to connect but it
gives me a 169.xx.xx.xx address with a subnet of 255.0.0.0.

If I dial using Network and Dialup Connections, I can specify the ip
address that i wish to use.  Is there any way that I can specify the
MY IP address when connecting, USING RASAPI.  I tried the netsh
command, (netsh interface ip set address "{xxxxxx}" static 10.0.0.200
255.255.255.0) but that referred me to the
"rundll32 netshell.dll HrRenameConnection" command as I need to name
the interface first.

I am using Win2k SP3 and this command does not seem to help.  Every
documentation that I found, appears to be for XP.

Thanks in advance.

Saleem
