Subject:	SCOUG-Help: DHCP stop ?

Content Type: text/plain

Peter,
If you type "dhcpmon" from a command prompt, a window is started which
is titled
DHCP Client Monitor - Details

The action bar should tell you all you want to know about this monitor!
There's even Help information - I don't know where it comes from. I
couldn't find anything in the Help Center under TCP/IP.
