Very roughly

         String hostString = context().request().headerForKey ("host");
         if (hostString == null)
             hostString = context().request().headerForKey  
("http_host");

I check both host and http_host in there because some build of apache  
changed this and I can't remember which is now current. (this is old  
code from a previous project)

Remember that this host address is being inserted into the header by  
Apache.  if you are working on WebObjects in developer mode you won't  
get a host address
