if I start a script and unplug the network cord or leave my script running for days, ipaddress-macros become useless.

 Code:
do
 ? @ipaddress0 '|' @ipaddress1 '|' @ipaddress2 '|' @ipaddress3 ' ' 
 sleep 10
until 1>2


in my mind this information should not be cached as once the information is queried, it is already old and might have changed.

Indeed, IP information is retrieved only once during the lifetime of the KIX32 process.

I'll have a look at providing an option to have these macros be determined dynamically.

Good find/suggestion, thanks!

Hello Ruud,

Any update concerning the IP information that is only retrieved once during the lifetime of the kix32 proces, I use this very often and should realy help me when we can do this more then once.

Many thanks/Patrick

If you care to use a UDF, this will get the info for you.

Allen,
I tested this but couldn't manage it to read 3 NIC cards from my testcomputer , all are connected on different networks. I used your scripts , only the last network card is just showning up.

Are you specifying the MAC addresses?

As an alternative, NICInfo() will return an array of arrays of all adapters in the system. See the Kix Lib section of my web site for the latest version of the UDF.

Yes as Glenn mentions... you have to provide the MAC address. The second example in the header does this very thing, although you will have to download the EnumNetworkConnections UDF as well.

Whoops.

What's with that debugging information being exposed like that?

OUTCH! The SQL Server service didn't restart after patching. We're back online.

As a workaround, I think the native KiXtart function EnumIPInfo() can also do the trick:
 Code:
Dim $n
$n = 0
While Not @ERROR
	? EnumIPInfo($n, 0, 1)
	$n = $n + 1
Loop

If the third parameter, mode, is set to 1, the current IP information is retrieved from the system.
