Like many parts of Winsock, this is slightly different from the typical behaviour of the POSIX function of the same name, which usually returns a FQDN. Actually, while the name returned by gethostname() is *usually* a FQDN on a POSIX machine, I don't actually think it's guaranteed there, either. For a C solution, the code given by danb1974 should work. An easy way to do it in pure PHP is, instead of just calling gethostname(), call gethostbyaddr(gethostbyname(gethostname())).

You have to do something like this (this is not actual production code): hostent *hent; gethostname(hname, sizeof(hname)); hent = gethostbyname(hname); strcpy(hostname, hent->h_name); // h_name is the official name according to winsock api ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-07-14 06:45:35] rona...@php.net Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php The windows XP "feature" for domain name resolution apparently gives out a bogus answer. This is an XP bug, not a PHP bug. Additionally, "trashcan2.intranet" is not a FQDN.
