If you would like to know what IP address you hav e been assigned, you can use the undocumented WINIPCFG.EXE utility. To use this program, choose the Run command from the Start Menu and enter WINIPCFG.EXE in the Run dialog box and click OK. The IP Configuration dialog box will appear, displaying your comp uter's IP address. > > Tibor > - > For help on using this list (especially unsubscribing), send a message to > "gnu-win32-request AT cygnus DOT com" with one line of text: "help". - For help on using this list (especially unsubscribing), send a message to "gnu-win32-request AT cygnus DOT com" with one line of text: "help".
