For some reason the IP address I got form my Mac (OS-10.3) was not
correct. Is it my Mac only? To get the IP address from my Mac I do
this:
a) select SYSTEM PREFERENCES from the APPLE menu
b) click on the NETWRK icon
c) The IP address appears in the selected line labeled "built in
ethernet."
But that address was not recognized as valid by a server I wanted to
access using the FTP. The address I got from the above URL, however,
was recognized as valid. What causes the discrepancy? Do other Mac
users (OS-10-3 only? Mac only?) have the same IP address by two
methods?
