[Nottingham] DHCP problem

[Aritra Dalal]

thanks dude.. i had that configuration before. I could continue using
that, it's just that I was hoping to be able to access the GAL that is
provided by the exchange server. It's not impossible, I can still lookup
the names manually on the student and staff directories, but that just
takes a bit longer :(

IDK about DHCP, but about your email problem, see here:

        Hey!
        I'm at the Nottingham University and for some reason I cannot
        seem to be able to get on the network easily from my Ubuntu OS.
        I've tried various EAP settings, but found Tunnelled TLS to work
        best (if at all). It takes a couple of tries for the network to
        recognise my username, and after the computer does get
        registered, the DHCP client fails to receive any information 9
        out of 10 times. In the rare occasion it does connect, the
        network speeds are worse than the 56k dialup speeds (with and
        without the proxies).
        
        What's funny is that when i log into my windows partition, it
        works fine, and works fine with my Maemo linux device. And as
        far as Ubuntu goes, I tried it on 10.04 and on a fresh install
        of 10.10.
        
        Any ideas?
        
        Thanks,
        
        Aritra.
        
        PS. Also, does anyone know if the evolution's 'evolution-mapi'
        plugin (http://www.go-evolution.org/MAPIProvider) can be used to
        access the new mail servers on the university nottingham
        servers?
