When testing the UDAP shell & specifically for the logging issue I was
seeing with the decode_mac function, I added a small code block to
check if $rawstr was undefined and if so to print a debug msg i.e.
"missing args" and to assign $rawstr the value of MAC_ZERO.

What was interesting is that when I ran this on my network (& I have
IPv6 disabled) after the discovery msg was sent, the decode_mac
function appeared to be called approx a dozen times with no args (hence
the screen filled up with my "missing args" msgs). This suggests that
the shell was possibly picking up responses from other network adapters
on my system (from memory, Vista appears to create a bunch of interfaces
beyond the ones you would expect from the phsyical ones). Anyway, I just
removed my debug msg and left the MAC_ZERO assignment in so this was all
handled silently.

There was the odd occasion though where the shell ended up including
the PC itself (i.e. with MAC address of 0.0.0....) in the squeezebox
list. I vaguely recall that you have logic to check for this, so you
are probably right that this may need to be tweaked a bit to handle the
Vista network stack differences from XP.  When this happened, I just
selected <configure 2> (rather than configure 1) and continued as
normal.

I will mail you a copy of the results from IPCONFIG/ALL from my Vista
PC, however, as noted, I dont actually have IPV6 enabled. IPCONFIG has
been changed though to support IPV4 and IPV6 IP addresses.

Thanks for the suggestion about the wireless settings. I do have 2
questions for you: When I set a 26 character hex key for one of the WEP
keys, this is displayed correctly when I <list> the settings. However,
if I then quit and perform a <discover>, <configure>, then <list> - the
WEP key isnt shown correctly (the formatting is wrong as it is shown as
13 ASCII chars). I assume this is just a formatting issue and if I set
a key of say F9F9F9F9F9F9F9F9F9F9F9F9F9 and save it, this is exactly
what is saved?
