Empty buffer

[BRUCE INGALLS]

<aside>
After some critiques of the internationalization of the EMacro site, I
put it back into English. On the home page, only, there is an i18n tab
to google-translate it to your native language. Let me know if such is
useful.

I noticed that it is not possible to have XHTML 1.1 compliant PHP, as
PHP chokes on
<?xml
tags. Feel free, to steer me to the proper resource for such.

What I am trying to do, is grab the first IP address, which is not a
netmask, nor 127.0.0.1.
Here is my first attempt:

  (require 'net-utils)
  (save-excursion
    (ipconfig)
    (set-buffer "*Ipconfig*")
    (goto-char (point-min))
    (search-forward-regexp "[0-9]" nil t)
    (match-beginning 1)))

Unfortunately, I cannot capture the output of ipconfig():

  (save-excursion
    (ipconfig)
    (set-buffer "*Ipconfig*")
    (buffer-string)))

Thanks for any help!
