The GetHostId function only works if since last IPL a SetHostId function was
performed.  You might do better with GetHostByName which uses the host table
lookup function.  The function inet_addr() with convert a dotted address to
the 32 bit internet address, (long integer).  If you want to hard code it
use eval AddrA = x'A4A41205' where AddrA is 4 byte alpha remapped to an
integer.

Subject: How to retrieve IP address 


I am working on a socket program in ILE RPG. In the client program I am
trying to retrieve the hostID.  I am using Eval = GetHostId. 
But it's returning only zeros. Any help. Instead if I want to hard code
it. How to specify my IP 164.164.18.5 
in Hex format. Thanks in advance.
