nslookup is more commonly used to query DNS servers about IP addresses, and may not work correctly if you're behind a NAT firewall.

>nslookup microsoft.com -- would return MS's main registered IP address.

An easier way to do this is to use the ipconfig command:

>ipconfig /all

That command should return any IP addresses for adapters in your machine.

hope that helps

ipconfig is actually a WINDOW$ command, the right UNIX command is:

ifconfig or
ifconfig -a

good luck
