Panels, then TCP/IP.
The TCP/IP Control Panel opens.
2. From the Connect via box, select your
Macintosh's Ethernet interface.
3. From the Configure box, select
"Using DHCP Server".
4. You can leave the DHCP Client ID box
empty.
5. Close the TCP/IP Control Panel.
6. Repeat this for each Macintosh on your
network.
