If he has a TCP session with the remote application then it already has the IP 
address and port. I'm not sure what the OP is trying to ask.

Subject: Re: TCPIP IP address for current LPAR

These may be dumb questions but:

1) I'm assuming you connected to the remote application first?  Else how could 
it connect without the IP address somehow?
2) Why isn't the remote application content with the host/domain name (since IP 
addresses _can_ change)?
3) Why isn't the remote application using DNS (via nslookup or other means) to 
get the IP address?
