To run ipconfig open a command prompt first - start, run cmd.
Once the command window is open try ipconfig.

David,
again many thanks but I have thrown up my hands and bought a netgear router
FR114P with some bells and whistles. I now have daughters computer on the damd
net at last. I am also online with XP but NOT with linux. Sheesh its a
either or situation!
The problem is with me not linux, however I did try using the mandrake gui
connection
and I could not manage to get it to connect. Hence I cannot call up
ifconfig but there
was no default gateway showing in ROUTE and only an ip of 192.168.0.0 on eth0.
When I got back to windows it would not connect and I had to go through the
setup
proceedures once again. I presume that what I was fooling with stuffed the
router settings.
There are no visible settings that i can use from windows that i can use in
linux.
The ip of the router seems to be 192.168.0.1, used for http config. I have
not ips for
downstairs computer either. Can I asume the this one would be 192.168.0.2
and the downstairs
192.168.0.3, or is this impossible. How can i find out what is using what
ip's. Use ipconfig you say
but when i call it here a little black window flashes up and is gone in a
flash.
One day I will have both online but its still frustrating, but at least i
have a daughter
(monkey) off my back.
Skippy in windows.
