Have just given up trying to talk to Hong Kong service engineer (he was my
last hope for help in this part of the world - esculated to US now!)

Following are required it you want Netserver to allocate an IP address from
its pool.

Framed-IP-Address 255.255.255.254
Framed-IP-Netmask 255.255.255.255

I didnt have them (not needed in v3.2.5.3)

My big problem now is that if I specify a static IP address for a particular
account (something within my class c network) Netserver logs this to
console..

Facility "IP", Level "Critical":: User xxxx is configured for an existing IP
network address

Anybody know why it might be saying this?

I have users that *must* have a static IP address by tomorrow or I am dead
in the water!
