(OT) Best way to resolve a hosts IP address

[Raffaele Sandrini <maturarbeit@gmx.ch>]

Hi 
Sorry this is a simple question and i thought it would be easyer to post 
it here that extra search a adequate perl mailing list. 
 
I need a safe way to get a hosts IP Address in a Perl script. I tried it 
with the NetAddr::IP module and got fair results but on some machienes it 
returned 192.168.1.1 on hosts wich had another ip. 
All the hosts are in the same subnet so it has not to be a complicated 
thing a function like gethostip() would be cool. 
 
cheers, 
Raffaele
