Hi,

I cannot find the ifconfig command to find out my IP address.

Have you looked in /sbin?

Is this command changed in 10.1???

No. When logged in as root, you should only need to use "ifconfig"
whereas as a normal user, you need to us /sbin/ifconfig instead. BTW,
this is exactly the same as with previous versions.
