I don't have ifconfig on my new installation of CentOS 5.6, but it is on my server in the cloud. What package contains it? Thanks, John

that musthave been a really stripped install. I just installed C6 minimal which was about the most stripped install I've ever seen, and it had /sbin/ifconfig
you -are- looking in /sbin/ right?

/sbin is not by default in a normal user's $PATH. Excerpt below: $ cat /etc/redhat-release CentOS release 5.6 (Final) $ ifconfig -bash: ifconfig: command not found $ su - Password: # ifconfig eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr ......... .... # exit $ /sbin/ifconfig eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr .........

Yes. I tried to install net-tools and found it was already installed, so I tried sbin.
Thanks, John
