Hello,
Is there a program that shows the current (dynamicly assigned) IP for the
slip inerface to a normal user. I want to write a script that will be
executed by a normal user (my father, I don't want him to log-in as root
:))) that will send an E-mail message to me with the current IP adres. This
script will be executed after dip has made a Cslip connection to the Net (I
will be in Engeland, my parents will be in Holland, and I want to have a
telnet chat with them :-)).
Both ifconfig and route are root-only :(
Do you have any suggestions?
TIA
Bas
