You answer NO, and you do not reboot!

Hmm... last month, I had the distasteful experience of configuring a
brand-spankin'-new Compaq 266MHz Pentium II machine with Compaq-installed
Windows 95 to use dial-up networking with a hard-wired IP address. Every
network configuration change I made required that I reboot. "You have
changed your network settings. Do you want to reboot now?" No, I didn't,
but that wasn't a choice.

How do I get Win95 to change its IP address and such without rebooting?
