redoubtable,

Thanks. I need to run the script on the remote server and find the IP addresses of my home computers with dynamic IPs. I'm not sure if that is what the script is doing b/c it looks very complex and I don't really understand everything. In any event, ran the script and I got this error:

Bad arg length for Socket::inet_ntoa, length is 0, should be 4 at -e line 1, <> line 1.

Thanks again and thanks in advance if anyone else takes a crack at this.
