[newbie] IP address and ProFTPd
Hey list. My problem is this: When I try to start the ProFTPd i get this error: Fatal: unable to determine IP address of hostname. I know how to fix this, by putting the hostname/IP in /etc/hosts, for example. It works fine when I do that, but the daemon in question is running on a laptop with an IP-adress that changes ever so often. So... My question is this: Is there a way to work around this without having to change the static entry in /etc/hosts every time i get a new IP? TIA!

Re: [newbie] IP address
Frank, I think this is CIDR notation for subnet masks. A subnet mask of 255.255.255.0 is really the 10-base notation of a binary masking system: .... (Notice equals 255, and equals 0.) The 1s indicate which part of the number is the network, and the 0s represent the machine number. The mask is always in two distinct pieces, so .. .1100 is possible, but never something intermixed like .11001100.10101000. So if you know the last 6 bits are the all 0s (for machine address), you also know then remaining 26 bits are all 1s and represent the network address. CIDR notation takes advantage of this numbering trick to represent the whole submask by only counting how many bits represent machine numbers. So 192.168.0.1/8 is 192.168.0.1/... or 192.168.0.1/255.255.255.0. Clear as mud? Miark In some previous posts I have noticed people refering to their IP address range as xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/xx.

you can check your current IP address by running /sbin/ifconfig. This will display the local IP address, network IP address, broadcast and adapter status. You can also (if you're running pump, type pump -i interface --status, although I'm not sure if pump monitor modems--I haven't tried it. dhcpd may have a similar status argument, but I haven't switched yet, so I can't bring up the man page... search the HOW-TOs to see what you'd type for dhcpd. Re-leasing a specific dynamic address is not a client-side option. If your ISP configures "reserved, dynamically assigned" IPs, which means they configure their DHCP server to give you the same address every time, then you can retain that address, but chances are, at some point, you'll get a new address if your ISP doesn't offer this.. --Greg hello, i have a couple of questions if anybody could help me out.

If you do not have telnet-server installed, mount your linux cdrom and it should be in the rpms directory... to check your ethernet IP, and PPP IP, just do use the command ifconfig
Re: [newbie] ip address...
Type ifconfig eth0 or ifconfig eth1 at the command line. Look immediately after where it says inet addr: You should be able to telnet to that ip address if everything else in set up correctly ex. inet addr:192.168.1.1 Hope this helps, Bryan Joe Brault [EMAIL PROTECTED] on 12/12/99 12:39:05 PM Please respond to [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] cc:(bcc: Bryan Moorehead/Link/Allied Holdings) Subject: [newbie] ip address...

Did you define one when you set it up? Also, how is your Win98 laptop connected to the Linux box? Finally, is the telnet server installed? John

Joeyou'd be the one who assigned the IP address to your linux-mandrake computer during the setup of your NIC.
