Linux IPs


Recommended Posts

I know you can go to www.ipchicken.com to get your external IP should you be behind a router. Sometimes I need my IP that my router assigns me. In Windows XP I just used ipconfig, but is there an equivalent command for linux?

thanx,

bug

Yeah...

ifconfig

(for interface config)

Oh, and a trick to help you find these things on your own is the nifty command apropos

Try doing an apropos fstab to see a list of all man entries that contain a reference to "fstab". You can further refine searches like this with a | grep "(8)" at the end to filter out only those commands that are executed as a shell command.
