can someone help me to detect, why i can't assing fixed ip addresses for my NIC cards?

in my windows 2000 professionl laptop, there are two network cards: on fire wired network and on for wireless network. during unattended setup, the network cards are properly detected (drivers are correctly installed and i can rename them with settings in winnt.sif file), but during the unattended installation i can assign them fixed ip-addresses! the only results are windows default settings: obtain an ip address automatically everything necessary seems to be installed, cause i can manually assign ip-addresses and network works perfectly (throughput, sharing, printing).

i have done following:

* hfslip: hotfixes, directx9c, ie6sp1

* nlite: added drivers, tweaks, and so on

* manually added into winnt.sif network reated stuff

adequate part of my winnt.sif file is such:

can someone point me, what is wrong????

While it only specifically mentions the sysprep.inf, maybe this is the cause?

From REF.CHM

Important

Because of Plug-and-Play limitations when installing network adapters, you cannot use this section in Sysprep.inf to configure more than one network adapter. The additional adapters will assume the default networking settings.

no, i don't think so. the adapters are correctly identifyed via INFID or NetCardAddress or bus location (PCIBusNumber / PCIDeviceNumber / PCIFunctionNumber) and by winnt.sif i can rename them. maybe there is something related with nlite tweaking process (ie some services or driver or other necessary resources is removed, that is essential for this unattended process). i try it later, to see, would the problem continue without nlite.

so, clean install without nlitening and with network sectiona activated in winnt.sif file works perfectly the question is: what part of nlite will obstruct the fixed ip-addresses assignment ? any ideas? any experiences?? i suspect something in network, operating system, services os tweaking section ....
