Hello everyone. I have installed Red Hat 8 professional. It is my first time installing Linux. I have a few questions. Some of the packages I installed using the "Package Management" tool are not showing up. For example. I selected "VNC" to be installed. It says that it is installed successfully but I can't find it anywhere. It isn't under any of the menus. Also... I installed Kerio mail server and can't find it. I have about 5 different things that I can't find. Am I assuming wrong by thinking it should show up under one of the menus? Also... I set it up to receive an IP address from my another dhcp server. Where can I check in Redhat to see what IP address it received? In W2k I can do an IPconfig. What do I do in Redhat?Thanks everyone in advance... Mike
Hi,
If your network connection is an Ethernet card, do "/sbin/ifconfig eth0". On one of my machines, the output looks like this:
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:90:27:57:0D:66
inet addr:192.168.230.201 Bcast:192.168.230.255 Mask:255.255.255.0

If you're looking for a program, try "which <program name>" This will show you the location of the executable, but only if the directory is in your $PATH. You can also try "rpm -qi <program name>" to check if the package was installed. Good luck,
Hidong
