All that aside....  If you have a system with a single interface you can always do....

[egreshko@meimei test]$ /sbin/ifconfig | grep 'inet ' | grep -v '127.0.0.1' | cut -d
: -f 2 | awk '{ print $1}'
192.168.0.18


Ed:

With all due respect, its become clear to me that ifconfig is obsolete and a solution which uses it doesn't have a future. Can you try to get the ip address with command "ip" on a i686 and x86_64 system without having to run a different command for each?

As for the "issue", I am still hoping someone can tell me that "ip addr show" giving a different device for the static IP on x86_64 and i686 is "not right" so I can bug it with confidence that I am not making a mistake (or let me know that I am making a mistake ... with enough info that I can confirm it is a pilot error)

Thanks,
Paul
