Is there anyway to dynamically retrieve the IP assigned to a router,
which is getting its IP from a DSL line in ColdFusion?
IF the router uses the same hostname for its inside ip address as it does
for its outside address (the DHCP assigned address you´re after), then
doing a PTR query (get hostname by ip) on the fixed inside ip address will
answer with a hostname. Then do an A query to an outside, public DNS with
that hostname to see the outside ip address.
hmmm, not real confident about all that. The first IF is a biggy.
