Cool...I did not know the ip command! Now it gets even weirder. For the heck of it, I typed the ip addr command on the Dell 3000...it works fine. I typed it from the Dell 2400 and it says "command not found". Bizarre since its all booting from the same CD.

I tried "ifconfig" on the 3000 and got the same > message. 'ifconfig' is a part of net-tools-1.60-79.fc7, as for now, package. Quite possible it was omitted from LiveCD to save some space. It does not do anything more than 'ip' which can also do many other things. For a quick peek how 'ip' works look how it is used in /sbin/ifup script and also try to type things like 'ip help', 'ip addr help' and similar.
