Ignoring your usual inflammatory remarks, I did want to add that this
is a pretty neat site, especially if you, like many other people, dont
get a static IP from your ISP.
However, that will only tell you the IP address of your external
facing interface, so most likely your cable or DSL modem. In my case,
it's showing the IP address of the outbound port on my gateway router,
since my DSL modem is acting as a pure bridge.
The OPs original question was regarding the IP address of the machine
he just installed/configured Apache on, so ifconfig is most
appropriate there, unless his machine is sitting directly on the
internet, which we have no way of knowing based on the information
given.

what are you doing on my LAN? ;-) This machine is currently using
192.168.1.10 and 1.11
