Question How do I find my IP address using Mac OSX?

I use a Mac with OSX 10.4.11 and I'm trying to find out what my IP address is so I can hook my buddy up.

Thanks! That gave me my IP address, but where do I find the :##### part that goes at the end of the address?

Open LW and and on the search page, click on "Direct Connect" (lower left below the search types box). It'll show your ip address and the port number. If it doesn't then you probably have a firewall blocking it.

You can also find the port number by going to Tools>Options>Advanced>FireWall Config, and you can get the listen on port there.

I have windows so the mac version of LW may be a little different.
