Folks.

I have setup a very simple socket from one machine to another. I want to send back very very simple HTML.

within the HTML I need to include my own IP address, but I am not sure how to get it.

I tried gethostbyname("localhost"), but this returns 127.0.0.1 which works on the local machine, but is not my address on the network.

For example, I happen to know that my machine is 192.169.1.104, and I can reach my machine remotely using this. How does my app learn that this is my address ?

I am sure its a really simple trick, but I am obviously missing it.

Cheers

Mark Gilbert.
