I have not taken this leap yet, but I have been assuming I would use os process to run ifconfig (ipconfig when forced<g>) and parse the output.

I agree. Network settings are now defined in the OS and need to be set again in the Image. When I suggested moving the network settings to the VM I was thinking along the lines of how web browsers manage their connection to the Internet. Web browsers seem to either link directly to the OS network settings (IE and Chrome) or extract the settings from the OS (Firefox and Opera). Bouraqadi Noury wrote:
Retrieving network setting from the OS (an not from a preference file) is typically the kind of thing that I'd like to have.
Absolutely, I'd rather not duplicate the network settings in the Image but have the system use the OS's network settings so the same Image can be used on machines with different network settings without the need to change these settings. -- View this message in context: http://forum.world.st/VM-Internet-Settings-tp2257076p2257285.html Sent from the Pharo Smalltalk mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ Pharo-project mailing list Pharo-project@lists.gforge.inria.fr http://lists.gforge.inria.fr/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pharo-project
