Unable to add TCP/IP protocol

[Brent]

I am attempting to add a TCP/IP protocol.

1) I loaded the adapter

2) In the Network dialog I click on the Protocols tab. The Network
Protocols list box is empty. I select "Add..." (the only enabled button),
I then select TCP/IP protocol and click OK. The following message appears:

"TCP/IP Protocol ver 4.0 already exists on the system. Please use [Update]
to update the software."

Since Update is not an enabled button and the network protocols list is
empty, I'm not sure what to do.

thanks,
Brent

Brent did you get this resolved?
I am having the same problem with an NT4 server.
I went thru the process of removing all the TCP/ip registry entries
reload TCP/IP and I still can't see it


In article <cfg9ms$hgu$1@news.state.mn.us>, you say...
