Local IP address
 

i really need a command to find my local ip address ex. 192.168.1.xxx anyone know?

ifconfig

ooo thank you sir, nice quick reply too!

no probs. don't forget that "man ifconfig" will give you other ways to use it.

um! i did the man ifconfig and i read through it and i got to the bottom, how do i get out of it? it just says

(END)

i pushed F3 and END and enter and space bar, nothin happends, what do i do?

Try q or enter

that worked, hten i typed if address and i got all these

and i press enter i get a new one, Q doesn't work, neither do any of the F keys. wow i'm really good at this huh.

Escape?

ifconfig

If will get you into a loop like that curtesy of bash commandline scripts (very useful actually)

Press CTRL+C

i have a friend who helps me, i got it with CTRL + ALT + F3. logged me out but its' oaky, thanks!

uh ho.. nother problem, i set DNS hosts like Comp100, Comp101, Comp102 etc. my linux was Linux102, now its [root@localhost root] it used to be [root@linux102] foudn out it's DMZ was changed from 102 to 105. how do i fix it? and why does it do that, it's happend before too

CRTL alt <something>
Doesn't log you out.
That's the beauty of Linux, you can be logged on more then once.
Try CTRL ALT F2 then CTRAL ALT F1 you'll see that you're just moving between what are called tty terminals (actually those kind of terminals more specifically are pty, but generally doesn't make much of a difference)

>uh ho.. nother problem,
it might help if you post your /etc/hosts file
I assume thats what you are messing with.
>foudn out it's DMZ was changed from 102 to 105
eh? You mean the last digit of it's ip address?
If it's allocated with DHCP then talk to your network administrator.

i am the network administrator
