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.  Please feel 
free to beat me to it :)

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).

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.
