Is there a way to assign a static IP address to users form command line in Windows Server? I mean, in Windows Server 2003, VPN server, how to set a value from command-line to a "Assign a Static IP Address" in "Dial-In" tab in User properties. Every time I re-install VPN server, I have to assign IP addresses to users manually. I can create a user, permit dial-in permission from command line, but can't assign IP address Pls, help.

My guess is that you want to assign IP address to the client workstations or notebooks. If it is the case, then consider using address reservation based on MAC address in DHCP server environment.

I would have ask in Power Shell forum. Thanks

Not sure about your question... In generic terms you should be able to assign a DCHP scope for VPN users that the VPN server would deligate out to VPN clients that have logged in/authed to your network, from within that scope you should be able to set a reservation. We do that for some users, but we use a vpn appliance.:P Advice offered, If you need more help it is advised to seek the council and advice of paid professionals. The answer is always 42, or reboot.

Try; netsh interface ip set address name="Local Area Connection 2" source=static addr=192.168.10.10 mask=255.255.255.0 gateway=none http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb490943.aspx Regards, Dave Patrick .... Microsoft Certified Professional Microsoft MVP [Windows]
