Hello,

        I am trying to write a small program in C that just outputs the IP
address of an arbitrary network interface (like ifconfig, but only the
address). The problem is, I don't know how I can determine the address
and my programming experience is too limited in order to fully
understand the ifconfig source code (I think ifconfig determines the
address through the function in_status() in ifconfig.c, though I don't
comprehend it).

        It would be nice if anybody could point out how I should proceed or
where I can find more information.


Thanks a lot in advance,

                Andreas

PS: I apologize if this is the wrong list for my questions. Please also
excuse any language mistakes since English is not my native language.
