Your question is different. He needs the local IP address and port number bound to an SSL socket. You need the local IP, period. No port number, and no sockets. So PR_GetSockName is not the right function for your question. Unfortunately there is no NSPR function for your question. One method some people use is to call PR_GetSystemInfo(PR_SI_HOSTNAME_UNTRUNCATED) to get the local host name, and then call PR_GetHostByName or PR_GetAddrInfoByName to get the IP addresses. This unfortunately requires a DNS lookup, when we know the answer should be available locally.
