    Windows Sockets IP

    Is there a way of retrieving my own IP address by using windows sockets?

    static ip

    check out msdn for winsock api to get network ip address or router api (system is connected to the internet via router)

    dynamic ip

    one approach is to connect to an external server such as webserver and log if host broadcasts the ip address
