Why and how >can this be ? Hi! There are two possibilities: 1) the user has assigned a static IP in network configuration. Therefore they collide. 2) The Win95 machine uses DHCP, and the DHCP server also assigns IP adresses already in use by the server. This may come by the matter that the DHCP does not recognize that a certain IP is assigned statically on the network, and therefore thinking its still free. Check DHCP IP tables and mask the IP in question.
