I don't really understand what's going on here, but oh well.

I have a BASH script, and in this script I want to run a command. This command doesn't exit, so I want my script to start the command and then move on leaving the command to run. When the script...

Hmm, I get dependency problems. Any suggestions?

I have written this tiny script that allows you to type in the hostname of a computer that is on your network, and get it's internal IP. This isn't exactly a big howto, but I find it useful.
