Go into the Security system preferences and check the item to make it lock your system preferences. What's happening is that the Network pane is comparing its stored settings against the live settings currently running (that were updated by the DHCP client) - and complaining that there's a difference. Locking things will make that complaint go away.

Anyone know why? Did the drive spin down on the QS? Tip: While the drive is mounted, make an alias of it. Then you can remount it simply by double-clicking that alias, without having to go into the Networks pane and waiting for it to refresh. - Dan. -- - Psychoceramic Emeritus; South Jersey, USA, Earth. -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
