How can I see my servers ip address. (it is handed out dhcp). Windows is ipconfig /all. Linux is.......
Why is the system name localhost.localhost. Why the dot abbreviated name. Can I change this? How can I reference it. For instance from a M$ workstation if I wanted to ping it how could I ping without having to enter the IP. Samba lets me set a server name up but is this just for samba or can I then reference this same name for telnet, ftp, mail settings????
