	You could try libsocket, which I maintain, which can be found at:

	http://libsocket.home.ml.org/

It can discover the networking details for fixed connections, e.g. in a
LAN or dial-up connection where you have a permanent IP address.
Unfortunately, it can't discover the IP addresses assigned dynamically
(i.e. most dial-up links).

	I can't remember any URLs for other libraries, but if you search
the mail archive you should find one, as this question is asked
frequently.
