[aklug] viewing network addressing information before ifconfig?

I was looking at an old (2003) embedded Red Hat system the other day.
There was no "ifconfig" on the system (or "arp", for that matter). There
was an "ifcfg" program, but it could only change settings, not display
them. I tried looking through /proc/net directory, but I couldn't seem
to find the standard network configuration info (or didn't know how to
interpret it...)
