gethostname and gethostbyname

Hi guys,
I need to write a programme, when it executes, it should display the hostname and the ip address of the machine it resides. I have written a code. It gives the username. But it dosent gives the correct ip address?

Pls help me to solve this?

Code:

int main()
{
    char abc[MAX_PATH];
    
    WSADATA wsaData;
    SOCKET sockfd;          
    WSAStartup(MAKEWORD(2, 0),&wsaData);   
    sockfd=socket(AF_INET,SOCK_STREAM,0);
    
    struct sockaddr_in sa;
    struct hostent *hp;
    gethostname(abc, sizeof(abc));
    puts(abc);
    
    hp = gethostbyname(abc);
    sa.sin_family = hp->h_addrtype;
    printf("\n\n%s\n\n",inet_ntoa(sa.sin_addr));
    system("pause");
}

See http://tangentsoft.net/wskfaq/interm...html#getipaddr

And next time post in the Windows or Networking board.

You need to copy the address as well as the address type:

Code:

    hp = gethostbyname(abc);
    sa.sin_family = hp->h_addrtype;
    memcpy(&sa.sin_addr, hp->h_addr, sizeof(sa.sin_addr));
    printf("\n\n%s\n\n",inet_ntoa(sa.sin_addr));
