dhable has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

I found the prior discussion about obtaining an IP address, but I have some additional problems.

I'm writing a simple client to trigger a SOAP server module and would like to keep the IP Address so I can do some run time events based upon the region the user is in. I can''t run ipconfig and grab the IP address since the Win95 boxes don't come with ipconfig. Is there any other way I can capture the IP address that's fast. (I would hate to slow down those speed demon Win95 boxes :O)

Thanks, Dan
