A little bit about your IP address (Internet Protocol address). When you connect to the internet, either via your internet service provider (AOL, Prodigy, etc.), or your office LAN connection, you are assigned an IP address. This address identifies your computer from the other computers on the internet. Your IP address can be either static, meaning it never changes, or dynamic, meaning each time you dial-in or login you are assigned a new address for that session. Check with your internet service provider or network administrator to find out if your computer uses static or dynamic IP addressing. If you want to see your settings, in Windows 95/98 try the following: Go to Start/Run and do the command winipcfg That will bring up a network screen with your values. Windows 2000 you can go to a DOS prompt and do: ipconfig On the Macintosh to get your IP address try the following: Apple Menu --> Control Panels --> TCP/IP Control Panel On Mac OS X: 1. Open system preferences 2. Under internet and network, click 'network' It will show you your IP address.. If you receive a dynamic IP address from your internet provider, it will likely be different on your next session. So if you need your IP address for later use, please check when you log on for that session.
