Thank you guys, but I thought of gethostbyname() but that really doesn't
solve the problem as I know it. I really do not know howdsl assigns
hostnames, but I know that on my dial-up it would be something like
pool000x.yada.yada.earthlink.net nad it would be different everytime that
the link goes down/up. SO I would have to know the hostname before I look
for the ip. I only will know the interface name before I poll the link.
Does anybody have a perl way to get an ip from a specific interface.

slept well in the last few days (finals).
