Hi,
I had 2 programs which are exactly the same in the way
they get the Hostname and Ip address.
The one which i ran from command line and other was
run as servlet.
Both used the following code to get the ip address,
java.net.InetAddress localHost =
java.net.InetAddress.getLocalHost();
ipAddress = localHost.getHostAddress()
When run from command line,
localHost=mypc/125.25.20.1
ipaddress = 125.25.20.1
When run as servlet,
localHost=mypc/127.0.0.1
ipaddres= 127.0.0.1 (loop back address)
Environment: Windows 2000, Apache
This was working on my solaris environment...
I saw in one of the doc pages that the java libs
dont return the actual ip address to an untrusted
applet..I am not using an applet.
Could it be anything to do with the dns setup ?
my nslookup gives an error, but my "hosts" file
has the proper ipaddress for my hostname..
But if it was DNS problem, why do i get IP address
from command line ?
Thanks in advance
Vijay
