How can I get the IP address of my computer "like outside worlds point of view"? gethostbyname fails? terrylee 24-October-2008 12:59:16 PMComments Please visit the following link: http://www.vbforums.com/showthread.php?t=403336 Posted by sagitraz If gethostname fails suspect there's a NAT box between you and the rest of the world. NAT is often implemented in a firewall and folks who are behind a NAT box cannot see the external address because all incoming addresses in packet headers are translated. Posted by suresh123 |
