Hey guys, I am just seting up my imac g3 (Rev B) to use as a Mac os 9 computer, I am having a major probem When I have it on my lan it gives out a very odd ip adress

it should be somthing like 192.168.2.??? (?=What ever) but it gives out to me 169.254.131.166 and I can not get on the net with this I-mac my power mac g4 worked fine when it was running 9, (running 10.4 server atm)

I have tryed giving it an adress my self but that has no help!

thanks who ever can help me and this problem I'll give you a cookie

Edit: The reason why is I hate having to set the time all of the time, so I let it auto update it for me, in OS 9's date and time,
