[linux-help] /etc/hosts addendum

[Ivan Trail <itrail@xxxxxxx>]

Hello,

I get a message that OEMComputer's internet address cannot be found and 
the suggestion that I add it to the /etc/hosts file.

My questions:

1) how do I find the ip address of my machine?

2) if I need to assign one, how woudl I do so and which number should I 
choose?

I am also very open to a helpful hint on where to find the documentation 
or FAQ's or HOWTO's on this one.

Thanks,
Ivan
