Run away from Gibson like your hair is on fire. That guys a shameless self promoting idiot. His software can't tell the difference between windows and linux. If you nee to know your effective EXTERNAL ip and you are behind a router use http://checkip.dyndns.com/ or http://www.whatsmyip.net/ If you need to know your machine's actual IP its /sbin/ifconfig -- _____________________________________ John Andersen -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
