Hi,
Debian's search tool is down.
Anybody know where ifconfig gets the inet addr?
...
ppp0 Link encap:Point-to-Point Protocol
inet addr:200.57.201.194 P-t-P:200.57.219.18
Mask:255.255.255.255
...
What sort of interface is it, and how do you bring it up? E. G. if it is a modem
connection to an ISP, the IP address is probably given by the ISP

I did not phrase that question correctly.
I mean, where in the /proc or /sym directories is the IP address stored.
From someplace there ifconfig gets it.
Indeed initially it is provided by the ISP.
