    I dont know how to change the IP Address, but can't u change to workgroup through the registry (but then you would have to restart the computer for changes to take effect).

    I wasn't asking how to get or set the computername, I know how to do that, but the workgroup name.
    I've read somewhere that this can't be canged in the registry unless you're using Win95/98. But I'm trying to change it in Win2000 and Xp. Isn'ty there any api-function or something else that can be used?
