How do I change IP address in fedora?

You can determine your IP by running:
/sbin/ifconfig -a Look at the entry for eth0 To change your IP edit the file /etc/systconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 then run /etc/init.d/network restart Or, you can use the GUI system-config-network. Hope this helps. |
I typed ifconfig and found my IP address, but it's 192.168.1.2 and not the address as displayed on www.whatismyip.com , Why does it give a different address?

becuase it shows you your publically routable addres, from your isp. it's no idea about the individual ip's on your home lan as they are natted when they go out to the net by your router.
