where ip address are kept?

[mkwan]

In Red Hat Linux, the static IP address is usually set in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 file. Where does Mac OS X set the IP address?

thanks,

You can view and change your IP address in the Network section of System Preferences.

Not sure if that's what you mean, but you can do it that way.
