====================================================
=================== 1. Algorithm ===================
                               
There are two programs for getting info 
  about network interfaces within C++-program :
* A program based on popen method
* A program based on ioctl method

Utility that uses popen-method enables to get MAC address. 

Utility that uses ioctl-method is C++-wrapper around Floyd Davidson's function 
  http://groups.google.com/groups?selm=87ofbox7xn.fld%40barrow.com 
  and enables to get info about various network interfaces.  
  Utility based on ioctl-method must be compiled 
  on UNIX-like operating system (for instance, CYGWIN, Linux).
====================================================

==========================================================================
============================= 2. Program Files ===========================
The algorithm contains the following files :
      

    popen method

  1. popen.h 

  2. popen.cpp 

  3. mac.h 

  4. mac.cpp 

  5. main.cpp 

  6. Makefile 



    ioctl method

  1. netif.h 

  2. netif.cpp 

  3. main.cpp 

  4. Makefile
