A slightly revised, but still broken script:

#!/usr/local/bin/perl -w

use strict;

   my $ifconfig = `/usr/etc/ifconfig ec0`;

   print "$ifconfig\n";
   $_ = $ifconfig;
   my ($junk, $ip_address) = /^(.*\n.*inet\w)(\d{1,3}\.\d{1,3}\.\d{1,3
+})/;

   print "$junk $ip_address\n";

Running this results in the following:
ROOT 164 tech_support_4 //devel# ./net_config.test
ec0: flags=410c43<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,FILTMULTI, MULTICAST,LINK0,IPALIAS>
inet 172.22.43.157 netmask 0xfffffc00 broadcast 172.22.43.255
Use of uninitialized value at ./net_config.test line 11.
Use of uninitialized value at ./net_config.test line 11.

(That ifconfig output is only on two lines on the system.)
