How To Get IP Address From The Host Name

September 3rd, 2007 | by programming |

Use the following method to get IP address of the hostname:

using System.Net;
public string GetIPAddress(string sHostName)
{
  IPHostEntry ipEntry = Dns.GetHostByName(sHostName);
  IPAddress [] addr = ipEntry.AddressList;
  string sIPAddress = addr[0].ToString();
  return sIPAddress;
}

    hi ,

    Will IPAddr.AddressList[0].ToString() always have the right IP?

    If i run this code, will i get the right IP at index 0.

    Can you please reply me ASAP?

    Thanks!
