Sys::Hostname(3pm) Perl Programmers Reference Guide Sys::Hostname(3pm)
NAME
Sys::Hostname - Try every conceivable way to get hostname
SYNOPSIS
use Sys::Hostname;
$host = hostname;
DESCRIPTION
Attempts several methods of getting the system hostname and then caches the result.
It tries the first available of the C library’s gethostname(), ‘$Config{aphost-
name}‘, uname(2), "syscall(SYS_gethostname)", ‘hostname‘, ‘uname -n‘, and the file
/com/host. If all that fails it "croak"s.
All NULs, returns, and newlines are removed from the result.
