The last one I configured (a long time ago) was done via the "IO menu". In your case, probably the optional menu. Once I got to the right menu, I had to set the ip-addr using up and down arrows for each field in the ip-addr. Same for the net mask. Once you have an ip-addr you can telnet to it. If that doesn't work, try using the mac address. It should be on the card (maybe with stickers). Use arp to make an association with the ip-addr you want and then telnet to that ip. I'm being vague on this because I haven't done it in a long time. If anyone out there remembers the procedure, speak up... Of course, if it doesn't speak tcp, this won't work. Probably the same if tcp is disabled. You might be able to find some info on the card from the hp web site. I have done several of these things but not a lj3. The most recent was a 4550 and it was very easy to do from the front panel. The lj3 front panel is quite painful by comparison. good luck jim
