same question here.
I found that moo sock has GetLocalIP$( "MooSock" ) and GetRemoteIP$( "MooSock" ) but I don't know how to use them properly. It seems that you must first connect to a website or something first and specify a port #, but when connecting to 127.0.0.1 it returns the local ip as 0.0.0.0 (but that's not the ip displayed when running ipconfig).
what's the way to print a user's ip address from within a mmf app? I'd prefer to have it displayed within the app than to have mmf run a .bat file that pops up a dos window displaying ipconfig results.
I don't think anyone has ever got an answer to that question, I'm not sure if it's possible with MOO :/ I had the same prob a while back. There was somebody that was going to make an extension that would return the players IP address but it never happened.
What does the GetLocalIP$( "MooSock" ) command actually do?
It guesses the local IP address.

Or rather:
IF "GetLocalIP$" is called
Return "0.0.0.0"
If I'm connected then it gives me my correct address on the local network, but not the IP address that the router uses (and so not the one everyone else sees when I'm online). For that I'd have to connect to a site such as http://whatismyip.org/ and see what it says.

would it be possible to download http://whatismyip.org/index.html and find it? Or if it uses PHP etc. then take it from the temporary cache after loading it with the Active X Web Browser?
YES YES YES
Simple. Just download http://whatismyip.org/ and you have your IP
