sys::hostname::long

Sys::Hostname::Long(3)					User Contributed Perl Documentation				    Sys::Hostname::Long(3)

NAME

       Sys::Hostname::Long - Try every conceivable way to get full hostname

SYNOPSIS

	   use Sys::Hostname::Long;
	   $host_long = hostname_long;

DESCRIPTION

       How to get the host full name in perl on multiple operating systems (mac, windows, unix* etc)

DISCUSSION

       This is the SECOND release of this code. It has an improved set of tests and improved interfaces - but it is still often failing to get a
       full host name.	This of course is the reason I wrote the module, it is difficult to get full host names accurately on each system. On some
       systems (eg: Linux) it is dependent on the order of the entries in /etc/hosts.

       To make it easier to test I have testall.pl to generate an output list of all methods. Thus even if the logic is incorrect, it may be
       possible to get the full name.

       Attempt via many methods to get the systems full name. The Sys::Hostname class is the best and standard way to get the system hostname.
       However it is missing the long hostname.

       Special thanks to David Sundstrom and Greg Bacon for the original Sys::Hostname

SUPPORT

       This is the original list of platforms tested.

	       MacOS	       Macintosh Classic	       OK
	       Win32	       MS Windows (95,98,nt,2000...)
			       98			       OK
	       MacOS X	       Macintosh 10		       OK
			       (other darwin)		       Probably OK (not tested)
	       Linux	       Linux UNIX OS		       OK
			       Sparc			       OK
	       HPUX	       H.P. Unix 10?		       Not Tested
	       Solaris	       SUN Solaris 7?		       OK (now)
	       Irix	       SGI Irix 5?		       Not Tested
	       FreeBSD	       FreeBSD			       OK

       A new list has now been compiled of all the operating systems so that I can individually keep informaiton on their success.

       THIS IS IN NEED OF AN UPDATE AFTER NEXT RELEASE.

KNOWN LIMITATIONS

   Unix
       Most unix systems have trouble working out the fully quallified domain name as it to be configured somewhere in the system correctly. For
       example in most linux systems (debian, ?) the fully qualified name should be the first entry next to the ip number in /etc/hosts
