Several months ago with the help of several
posts here I developed this little script that gives general information
about a Mac to aid a remote help support person. I have run into a little
snag with some recent field testing and that is the script is looking specifically
at en0 if you are using en1 you get the error: get if addr en0 failed (os/kern)
failure.
What is the best way to check both ports
or 0 and then 1 if there is no cable in 0 or all possible cards and then
just reporting back what it finds? Thanks for all your help once again!
