If it's Win2K or XP, use cmd, not command, and you will have a vertical scroll bar on the right. If it's Win9x/ME, use winipcfg in the Run box, click More Info, and choose the adapter in the top drop box.

I do believe that if you add a /p it will display one page at a time.. been a while since I've used that though, I think that's how it worked.

Nope, it won't accept /p. By the way, I just used command instead of cmd and got a scroll bar. (Win2000)

Moot point, since this is Win98 but the correct syntax is by piping through more:
"ipconfig /all | more"

That's it.. been so long since I've used DOS, but I knew the command was in there somewhere.

Then you need to run WINIPCFG as I described.
