TCP/IP Protocol Settings for Windows 2000

If you have computers that communicate with the NEC EXPRESS5800/ft server
using TCP/IP protocols, you must make several settings to your ft server to
allow communications without interruptions. These setting changes must also be
made in all clients connected to the EXPRESS5800/ft server via the network.
Note:
on your system, you do not need to perform this procedure
on your ft server. However, this procedure should be
performed on all computers connected to your ft server.
1. Power up the server and its peripherals.

press and hold down the Shift key to prevent auto start.
