Hello again folks -- I seem to be the fountain of unending questions
today -- Sorry about that :)

I am working on several different Fedora boxes today, and I am looking
for the equivalent command to the windows IPCONFIG or IPCONFIG/ALL
command.  I basically need to be able to check the network settings that
either DHCP assigned or statically assigned.  I think I'm having trouble
with my DNS server and I want to try to nail the stupid thing down

Thanks so much 

TIM

That won't work -- the db format has changed between 1.x and 2.x.

In evolution 1.4, go to contacts, Edit -> Select all (ctrl+a), and then
File -> Save as vCard or right-click any of the selected contacts and
select save as vCard. (I've only got evolution 2 now, so some of those
commands might be a little off but I know that you can do something like
what I described in evolution 1.) You can then import that vCard file
containing all of your contacts into evolution 2.

Best, Darren
