For NT and 95: every interface which is not ppp is considered as eth type. 
This is not correct, but at least they're listed. I've searched the msdn
but found no information where and how it is coded that an network inter-
face is tokenring or ethernet or something else.

The Problem with the 2k implementation was that the tokenring adapters
were left out and xfree could not find the correct interface for the local 
ip-address.
