It's ok, you just need to append ".local" to the return value of "the
hostName".

Hi All,
I have the following function:
------------------------------------------------------------------

-- Get the LAN IP Address of this Machine

------------------------------------------------------------------
function IPMGetHostIPAddressLAN
local myHostIPAddress
put hostNameToAddress(the hostName) into myHostIPAddress
return myHostIPAddress
end IPMGetHostIPAddressLAN
This used to work fine and return the local LAN address of the
machine the Script is running on, I just tried it and now it just
returns empty.
I originally cribbed this from Richmond's "Get IP Address" stack.
I download this again from rev online and it too fails. From this
stack:
on mouseUp
put "Public IP =" && url "http://xtalk.memebot.com/cgi-bin/
ip.cgi" into line 1 of fld "F1"
put "Local IP =" && hostnametoaddress ("localhost") into line 2
of fld "F1"
put "LAN IP =" && hostnametoaddress(the hostname) into line 3
of fld "F1"
end mouseUp
When I run this I get "empty" as the LAN Address. The other two IP
address fields are filled in ok.
Could anyone shed any light on why this has stopped working and
how I can obtain the LAN IP address?
Which machine ? OS ? Rev version ?
It would be interesting to see the output from
put the hostname && ":" && hostnametoaddress(the hostname)
to see whether the hostname has been set properly (and then to see
whether the host name to address mapping is OK).
if you're on a Mac, try opening a terminal window, and look at the
output from
echo $HOSTNAME
if you're on a PC, ummmm .... I forget :-) - but look at what the
system thinks the hostname is.
