Subject: OT: determining if on a network (windows)
This isn't specifically a VNC question, however many people on this list are
quite knowledgeable about Windows, and it does relate to a project I'm doing
with VNC:
I would like to run a short program/script at bootup (specifically for
laptops) that determines if the laptop is on a network or not (ie, going to
be using dial-up), and then installs a different AuthHosts registry key
based on the results. This needs to run on Windows 95/98 and on NT.
Has anyone done this or knows of a solution for this??
Thanks,
Glenn
