Disregard …. I took a break and went
back to it just now and figured them both out.

Subject: [CentOS] How to find your
IP Address
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.
Another question has to deal with Samba. I set up samba
using the GUI interface then ran service
smb start 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?
