[Winpcap-users] GetAdaptersInfo, a little bit off-topic

[Michal Szostakiewicz]

Hey guys,

This is a little bit off-topic, but I think some of you may know the 
answer and I hope you won't kill me.

I've got a problem using GetAdaptersInfo from IPHelper. Sometimes it gives 
info that is different from that given by "ipconfig" [usually on 
Windows98].

Is there any other way to get IP adress and DHCP server? [other than 
parsing ipconfig's output]

BTW, I need this data to determine if I'm connected with Internet or not 
[ie. to check if DHCP server is not 255.255.255.255].

greetz,
