And it looks like the fix will be to replace the GetNetworkParams call with
GetAdaptersAddresses in lib/irs/win32/resconf.c and go from there to get the
DNS server addresses. Gentry you may also want to look in
SYSTEM\\CurrentControlSet\\Services\\Tcpip6\\Parameters as well as
SYSTEM\\CurrentControlSet\\Services\\Tcpip\\Parameters for the search list.
