1 For years I have been using ifconfig and some simple shell magic to
2 extract the ip address from the adsl ppp session when it changes. The
3 latest update has changed the output format of ifconfig breaking things
4 so if ifconfig cant be relied on, what's normally used to extract an
5 interfaces IP address? I can easily rewrite the shell magic, but its
6 worth asking if there is some command better suited.
