ip address?

Just installed Slackware 8.0 and set it up to use dynamic IP addressing. How do I find out what IP address is assigned to the box?

Thanks

Cool
You can Switch User to root in a term (su -)
Then do (ifconfig) this will show you the information on all the network interfaces you have running.

Actually, you don't even need to su to root in order to run /sbin/ifconfig. Only root is allowed to change the information however.
