I'm just trying to get the external ip address for the box. I tried ftp'ing to a box back at home in California since it would log the connection attempt, but it just timed out. I can't ftp to redhat or anyone, it would seem. The ping not working cause of disabled icmp makes sense though, im just not sure how to get the external address of this thing now...
