Hi,  
I would like to have easier and fast way to change the TCP/IP settings  
of my computer.  
As my job requires in order to connect to each customer network. For  
example to change it to a specified IP/Gateway/Subnet Mask etc.  
I have seem a VB script which does that.  
Is that possible to do a script in Ruby to do that? Does exist any gem  
in order to help me?

Kind Regards

Roberto Nogueira

if you’re on windows, you can use WMI through Win32OLE, or netsh via  
commandline/piping config
