On Windows NT/2000/XP: Open Start Menu, go to Accessories, choose Command Prompt, type "ipconfig /all" and use the first IP address listed next to DNS Servers
 

Tip: If you use a DNS forwarder like Winroute or Wingate, enter it's IP address instead

eggdrop.simple.conf (minimum) -> for beginners
eggdrop.advanced.conf (standard) -> for intermediate
