Local IP address / Java Incompatibility



We found an incompatibility between Java on Solaris 2.5.1/2.6 and on Debian 
2.0.r2 Could anybody suggest how to find out, if it is a bug in Debian Linux 
or JDK?

Additions to the included bug report:

- $ hostname -i
  129.69.183.3

  gives the correct answer in a shell.

- Debian 2.0 comes with jdk-1.1.5v5-1


Thanks.

Hello!

I have tried to get the IP address and host name of the host running my 
Java application using the following Java-Code:

  InetAddress inetadr = InetAddress.getLocalHost();
  System.out.println("LocalIP:   " + inetadr.getHostAddress());
  System.out.println("LocalName: " + inetadr.getHostName());

This works well for a SUN system, but I always get 127.0.0.1 and
localhost on my Debian Linux system. Is this a bug in Linux-Java or
is there any other way to determine the name and IP address of my
localhost???

Can anyone help me?

bye Thomas!
