Yes, it's the first number after inet.

again, first after inet.

What I personally would do, though it's a bit of a pain to set up, is if your 
router supports DHCP reservations (dlink G router does here) you can give 
each compy a 'static' dhcp address.

After you have them all rounded up you can add entries to /etc/hosts
192.168.1.66 bedroom
192.168.1.64 kitchen
and such, till you're done on all the boxen

then do /etc/init.d/networking restart 
and now you can refer to your targets as 'kitchen' or 'bedroom' or whatnot.

scp *.jpg [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Note that if the username you are logged into on the source computer is the 
same as your target's username it can be safely dropped, and it's implied.
