If you don't know your IP you aren't going anywhere with tcpip. You need IP, Netmask, gateway/router, computer name, etc. When you go set it up, you'll use ifconfig to configure your ethernet card. do ``man ifconfig'' or look at the ifconfig_xxx line in /etc/sysconfig (xxx=your ethernet card device name) for examples.
