Is there a way to see which IP addresses have been assigned to your PC in the
past? I am trying to remote desktop into a PC at my home, but I can't remember what my IP address is. |

... Is there a way to see which IP addresses have been assigned to your PC in the past? I am trying to remote desktop into a PC at my home, but I can't remember what my IP address is. Not that I know of... In the future you might consider using one of the free dynamic naming services like No-IP.com or DynDNS that assign a fully qualified domain name (FQDN) to your public IP. The way it works is you install a small program on your PC. The program contacts the No-IP or DynDNS servers on a time scheduled basis. The servers then know what your current IP is and map that to your FQDN. You call home using the FQDN. If your PC is behind a router then note that some routers have built-in support for that. I have used both and they work equally well. http://www.no-ip.com http://www.dyndns.com If you have someone at home have them go to http://www.whatismyip.com and get the current public IP as an interim solution. -- Al Jarvi (MS-MVP Windows Networking) Please post *ALL* questions and replies to the news group for the mutual benefit of all of us...
