hi,

well, what I first did was strace-ing ifconfig... but I've seen some 
differencies from my PC and another one; that is, ifconfig appears to check 
(try to open) for a number of files (maybe also in a certain ordrer...) to 
gather the information it needs...
For instance, on my PC it parses the "file" /proc/net/if_inet6 while I cannot 
remember what was on the other PC.
So, is there any file I could check (maybe inside /etc ? ) to see what I need 
to parse in the /proc/net/ directory?

TIA
A.
