The PC I use has a fixed IP, but it is issued by my server's DHCP
daemon. I also tried using my office laptop (also running SuSE 9.0)
which I happened to have at home this weekend - it also gave me the same
response. I'll post a message on my server's (Mitel SME Server) forum.

Thanks for your help,
