RE: Retrieving IP address for sockets

[Tim McCarthy <TimM@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Are you talking about getting the IP address of a connected client, the
current host or a remote host? You can use "gethostid" to get the
current IP address (in 32 bit form) or "getpeername" for the addess to
which a socket is connected. Is this what you're looking for?
