Get IP - quick question *RESOLVED*

Hey guys,

I cant seem to find the syntax in VB.NET to return my local IP address...

ie:

VB Code:

label1.Text = 'get my IP here

Any one know?

Thanks in advance fpr the help

Longy

surely there is a way...

VB Code:

Dim ipHost As System.Net.IPHostEntry = System.Net.Dns.GetHostByName(System.Net.Dns.GetHostName())
 
Dim ip As System.Net.IPAddress() = ipHost.AddressList
 
Label1.Text = ip(0).ToString()

You can also enumerate the ip array and get all the ip address thats asociated with your machine.

Hope that helped. :)

thanks man that helps alot...

although im still VERY confused about the whole sockets thing...

anyone got a VERY basic example or tutorial?

Thanks
longy
