jaclaz , exactly what i was thinking, but were to nice to post.

I see it a bit differently, everyone is perfectly free to pursue his/her attempts to re-invent the wheel (or hot water) but they should KNOW it has been already invented, and possibly invent an improved one (like hotter hot water or rounder wheels ).

Informing people about this undeniable "historical" fact is not "nice" or "nasty", it's just a little help into avoiding exceeding in complexities:

Everything should be made as simple as possible, but not simpler.

BTW, did you know that actually automotive wheels are being re-invented?

Here is the TWEEL (Tire+WhEEL):

Jaclaz,

Thanks for the help.. Works like a charm.. I am going to use your way since it does not require a extra application to be used..

I did modify it slightly however..
Myk3

CODE

for /f "tokens=2 delims=:" %%A in ('IPCONFIG^|FIND "IP"') do [b]set ip[/b]=%%A

I am using this to set a network based TV tuner to stream to the appropriate pc.. and it works like a charm.. Thanks..

Also does not work if you have more than one network card or if you have vmware installed which installs 2 virtual network adapters. Needs to return the first address not the last.

[paraglider]

For those cases this works better:

CODE

@echo off
for /f "tokens=2 delims=:" %%A in ('IPCONFIG^|FIND "IP"') do (if not X%%AX==XX ( echo %%A & goto :eof ))
:eof

[Myk3]

so your saying if multiple nic are used (such as laptop wifi and lan) this other code will work better?

CODE

@echo off
for /f "tokens=2 delims=:" %%A in ('IPCONFIG^|FIND "IP"') do (if not X%%AX==XX ( echo %%A & goto :eof ))
:eof

I am saying my tweak will return the first network address not the last. Only you can determine if this better or worse than the original.

[Myk3]

Since this is still a IPconfig thread..

Is there a way to display the full config "ipconfig /all" of only one adapter, and not all the adapters on the unit.?

[Myk3]

I think i have figured it out.. I used Jaclaz's stuff to figure it out..

CODE

for /f "tokens=1 delims=" %A in ('IPCONFIG /ALL^|FIND "DNS Servers"') do echo %A

edit: This will only display the first DNS Server not the 2nd.. Is there a way to display both?

[was_jaclaz]

You need a few more lines, something like this should work (just a base, to be tested and adapted to your needs):

CODE

@ECHO OFF
SET Whattofind=%1
SETLOCAL ENABLEEXTENSIONS
SETLOCAL ENABLEDELAYEDEXPANSION
SET /A DCounter=0
FOR /f "tokens=2 delims=:" %%A in ('IPCONFIG /ALL ^|FIND "Descr"') do (
REM ECHO %%A
SET /A DCounter=!DCounter!+1
SET Nic_Descr_!DCounter!=%%A
)
SET /A ICounter=0
FOR /f "tokens=2 delims=:" %%A in ('IPCONFIG /ALL ^|FIND "IP."') do (
REM ECHO %%A
Set /A ICounter=!ICounter!+1
SET Nic_IP_!ICounter!=%%A
)

FOR %%A in ( 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9) DO (
IF DEFINED Nic_Descr_%%A SET Nic_Descr_%%A=%%A:!Nic_Descr_%%A:~0,30!:!Nic_IP_%%A!
FOR /F "tokens=1,2,3 delims=:" %%B IN ('ECHO !Nic_Descr_%%A!^|FIND /I "%Whattofind%"') DO ECHO %%C : %%D
)

This accepts one parameter that has to be part of the description string for the NIC.

P.S.: Please note that in the second FOR loop there is a full stop in the search string FIND "IP."' , that I need on Italian OS, for English it should be removed.

Jaclaz,

The main thing I need the both the DNS servers listed.. I can get the first one but not the 2nd .. Is there a way to do this?
