DOS command for finding a puter's IP...

Does anyone know the DOS command for finding a puter's IP address.

I don't need to code it, but on my current system there is a proxy setup for it, but I can't figure out what the correct IP is...

I am sure that you know this but just in case, you can run winipcfg from the command line.

ipconfig is the DOS version.

Output looks like this:

Code:

---

C:\WINNT\system32>ipconfig

Windows NT IP Configuration

Ethernet adapter El90x1:

        IP Address. . . . . . . . . : xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
        Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . : xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
        Default Gateway . . . . . . : xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx

---

Options include:

Code:

---

C:\WINNT\system32>ipconfig /?

Windows NT IP Configuration

usage: ipconfig [/? | /all | /release [adapter] | /renew [adapter]]

      /?      Display this help message.
      /all    Display full configuration information.
      /release Release the IP address for the specified adapter.
      /renew  Renew the IP address for the specified adapter.

The default is to display only the IP address, subnet mask and default gateway
for each adapter bound to TCP/IP.

For Release and Renew, if no adapter name is specified, then the IP address
leases for all adapters bound to TCP/IP will be released or renewed.

If I am on a LAN and behind a proxy...

Which of the following is needed to make my Winsock chat program able to serve for other clients?

IP address:
DNS Server:
Default Gateway:
DHCP Server:
Primary WINS server:
Secondary WINS server:

Ad I'm sure I will need to share my H/D is this correct?
