RE: IP Filtering Patch

Argh... it may be something to do with OSX that I just don't know enough
about.  I wrote this on 2k with about 4 seperate NICs and it worked
accordingly.  Unless I can find an OSX box around here, I'm not sure what
else to try....

Does http://localhost:9000/ work?

Hi,

This isn't working under OSX.  I'm getting a failure on gethost() using  
the value returned by hostname(), which in my case is 'firebook'.

It could be a problem with my particular configuration (I have a host  
name, but no DNS entry for my statically assigned address).

I rewrote SliMP3::HTTP::init() thusly so it doesn't fail, but it still  
only gives me 127.0.0.1 in the list.  Thoughts?

sub init {
	@hostaddr = ();
	my @hostnames;
	push @hostnames, 'localhost';
	push @hostnames, hostname();
	
	foreach my $hostname (@hostnames) {
		my $host = gethost($hostname);
		if (!$host) { next; };
		if ( @{$host->addr_list} > 1 )
		{
			my $i;
			for my $addr ( @{$host->addr_list} ) {
				push @hostaddr, inet_ntoa($addr);
			}
		} else {
			push @hostaddr, inet_ntoa($host->addr);
		}
	}
	$::d_http && msg("Local IP addresses: " . (join ' ', @hostaddr) .  
"\n");
	
	idle();
}
