Rjay,
Asking questions on how to get "ipaddress" and "host id" as the
first step to learn shell script could lead some people to believe
that somehow there is a second intention behind it.
This may be the reason why your post was not answered yet.
Why not starting with a shell that prompt and display?
Code:
while true
do
  echo "Enter string:"
  read mString
  echo "You entered "$mString
done

This is the easiest way to start learning a language, not trying to
access system information.
Any other questions, let us know.
Good luck.

Next to the top of the page, there is a tag "New Thread".
