Or a list of these maybe? At first I thought we could use the call to gethostbyname already done in init_system_name, but it doesn't give you information on the interface names, right ? Maybe we should just use the output of ifconfig ? (that's what ipconfig does in net-utils, I think). -- / / _ _ Didier Verna http://www.inf.enst.fr/~verna/ - / / - / / /_/ / E.N.S.T.
