font-family:Arial'>Ok guys a quick newb question. I have been reading up on the
Red Hat Enterprise 4 for dummies book along with installing and playing with
the configurations of Cent OS 4. I have yet been able to find any information
on how to find out what your IP address is. I have it set to use DHCP from our
Windows server and I looked under the network card configuration settings but
can not find any command or GUI place that will show your IP Address. When I go
to a windows machine and try to ping the Cent box by its name it cant find the
host. Now I know I can go into the DHCP server but I need to learn how to find
it on the Linux box. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>Another question has to deal with Samba. I set up samba
using the GUI interface then ran <b><span style='font-weight:bold'>service smb
start</span></b> command to start up samba. The book says I should be able to
browse the network with a windows machine now and find the linux box but I am
unable to. Any clues why its not showing up on the network?<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
