Finding Local network IP address.

How can I find my "Local" IP address in Linux? Not "Public" IP address but my computer's IP address on my home network.

Thanks,

Try

PHP Code:




fgrep `hostname` /etc/hosts

;)

And why does ifconfig not work? What does it say?

I tried to run ifconfig in my redhat, and got
bash: ifconfig: command not found

At the command line type " redhat-config-network " this GUI will present you with your network parameters. Also you could read the configuration files in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts.
