[MacPerl] How to get the TCP/IP host name

[Milivoj Ivkovic <mi@alma.ch>]

Hello,

I'm trying to do a little sub to get the host and domain name, and would like it to run on Macs too.

Unfortunately I don't have a Mac to try it out. Would someone know which of these would work on a Mac:

gethostbyname('localhost'); # OK on Win32, not Linux
`hostname` # OK on Linux, not Win32
$ENV{'HOSTNAME'} # OK on Linux, not Win32

And if you happen to know for other OSes as well, I'm interested too, of course.

Thank you.

M.
