G'day,
I'm currently blundering through a script that will let me configure and
then connect to PPTP VPNs from a Linux box. Just a text-based front-end
to pptp-client, really.
Adding in new VPN configurations was simple. Connecting is a little
harder. From the command-line I would normally
The Python Cookbook (1st ed) suggests this, in recipe 10.4 (Finding Your
Own Name and Address):
import socket
myname = socket.getfqdn(socket.gethostname())
myaddr = socket.gethostbyname(myname)
myaddr
'192.168.1.120'

At present, the only thing I can think of is to redirect the
output of 'ifconfig' into a temporary file, then read it back in and use
Python and regular expressions to try and extract the IP info from that.
That is basically how I do it. See here:
There is no need for the if(dlst); if the list is empty the iteration will do nothing. You can write this as
for dlf in os.listdir(pname): Though it is quite distant, there is an else statement which makesthe if construct a requierement.Javier
You could just do -
if not len(dlst):
#Your
Such would serve to pull the test and the reason for it together -
more obvious.
Which is a good point in writing code that others may read.
Thanks Liam

OK Kent - got it:My little formating function could be written as (tested) def cellpos(pname, alvl, blvl, clvl): # breakout path components into list pl = pname.split('/') # insert empty cells for repeated names and # add new path components (cells) to csvline

Why go to a temporary file when you can open a pipe?

Hi Kent. Thank you for your reply. I gave this a go but get the
following traceback:

result = validator(name, value)
TypeError: 'str' object is not callable
Have put validators in list and iterate over it as in following:
validator_list =
Sorry, forwarded to the wrong list.

I do wish to parse ifconfig, as I'm specifically after the address of
ppp0. At this stage, I'm only writing the script for my own machine,
so the downside to parsing ifconfig does not yet apply. I'm a little
curious, however. When you say 'varies depending
