It's lonely at the top, but you eat better.
I use my getip.sh script (windows xp):
#!/bin/bash
# find default gateways
# select the one with the lowest metric
ip=`route print | egrep "^ +0.0.0.0 +0.0.0.0 +" | gawk 'BEGIN {
metric=255; ip="0.0.0.0"; } { if ( $5 < metric ) { ip=$4; metric=$5; }
} END { printf("%s\n",ip); }'`
echo Current ip is $ip 1>&2
echo $ip
Seems to do the job fine on my setup :-)
Why not the more simple:
ipconfig | grep "IP Address" | awk '{print $NF}'
