Re: finding IP address of ethernet card
The trick (as you showed, but didn't point out) is
that you must either have /sbin in you path (which
root does) or specifiy it when you try to run
ifconfig.
Mere mortals must run ifconfig as such:
/sbin/ifconfig
Root can just type ifconfig, because /sbin is in his
path. Or course mere mortals can't bring up the net
or shut it down with ifconfig......(least I hope
not).
