ipconfig file missing
I am trying to find the ip address on my Red Hat Linux box, but there is no ipconfig file in my /sbin/ directory. I did a 'locate ipconfig' in the terminal and the only files i got were plipconfig, sipconfig.py/c/o, plipconfig.8.gz, ipconfig.h
I dont know what happened to my ipconfig file. If anybody knows where I can get a new copy of it? Or what I can do I would appreciate it.

ifconfig
instead of ipconfig0 + 1 = 1 != 2 <> 3 != 4 ...
Until the camel can pass though the eye of the needle.

Please do a
If it really not there, then someone/something with root privileges deleted it.Code:ls -la /sbin/ipconfig
Which is... un-good
Anyway, ipconfig is part of the package net-tools.
This should bring you back in the game:
Code:yum install net-tools
