How do I go about finding my IP settings, Subnet mask, gateway #, and DNS server #s that are running on my mac other than reading what's listed in the System Preferences? Is there a program that will tell me?
Have you tried Network Utility and NetInfo Manager inside your Utilities folder? Press Command+Shift+U in the Finder to bring up the Utilities folder. Somebody with Terminal experience could point you to some bash commands .
type "ifconfig" into a terminal window it displays everything you will need to know. Its a little cryptic so if you need help decoding it just post here.
