> An interesting problem surfaced recently. If you want to figure out an EPR (for subscription, say) you'll need to get the ip address. However, InetAddress.getLocalHost().getHostAddress() can bind to a local interface and get either a loopback address or a 192.168.X.X address... this is bad. Here's some code to look for the first non-loopback and non-local address.
> 		
> String hostAddress = InetAddress.getLocalHost().getHostAddress();
> Enumeration interfaces = java.net.NetworkInterface.getNetworkInterfaces();
> while(interfaces.hasMoreElements()) {
> 	NetworkInterface nextInterface = (NetworkInterface) interfaces.nextElement();
> 	Enumeration addresses = nextInterface.getInetAddresses();
> 	while(addresses.hasMoreElements()) {
> 		InetAddress address = (InetAddress) addresses.nextElement();
> 		if(!address.isLoopbackAddress() && !address.isSiteLocalAddress()) {
> 			hostAddress = address.getHostAddress();
> 			break;
>          	}
>        }
> }
