The DHCP message is because you have not configured the TCP/IP protocol in the network control panel. Because it is unconfigured, your computer is looking for a DHCP server on the network, doesn't find one and tells you. DHCP is Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol, a subprotocol of TCP/IP. Are you using TCP/IP on your network? What kind of server are you trying to connect to? I suggest you look at another computer on your network, or if you're just connecting to another Windows 95 machine, the other machine, and set up clients, protocols and services exactly like the other one. If you don't know what TCP/IP is, you are probably not using it. Stick with IPX/SPX compatible or NetBUEI , they're easier.
