How to check network connections:

Sorry, not all the world is Linux:

Okay, that's odd. Where do they hide the route command
In /usr/sbin/route. However route fails, since only root

Can I assume that the grep part should work on any self

Only if the user have sufficent permissions which,

Well, there is an easy solution to that problem.
First, try to use route because it will tell you if there is

Try:

This should give the routing tables as well. Netstat can be used on
solaris too afaik.
Yes, works for me (even as normal user).

This sounds like a great idea for generic checking for a network
connection.
However the API seems to lend itself to not only checking a generic
internet connection but also checking conductivity to a specific host.
