    What command do you run in the terminal of ubuntu to find info about your ip address?

    I need to find out what dns server im on the fix the inter net on my windows partition


    Additional Details

    im using linux not vista when i do ipconfig in vista it doesnt give me a dns server ip because the internet is not working on vista only working on ubuntu

    so in ubuntu i have to figure out the server and put that number into to windows configuration because vista is to stupid to figure it out by itself

    Code:
    cat /etc/resolv.conf
    The output from this command should have a line that says:
    "nameserver 192.168.10.1"

    Where the IP address given is that of your DNS server.
