I have connected a Debian box attached to a NAT router to a cable modem, and I'd like to determine (preferably from Perl but anything will do!) my "internet" IP address (as opposed to 192.168...).
I searched for information on this and found only solutions by parsing the output of websites that display the HTTP REMOTE_ADDR. But I don't want to rely on an external website. I know there must be a way to do this because Gnutella-type programs (client) display my "outside" IP address. How do they do it? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
