Re: IP address question

[Scott Klement <klemscot@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Michael,

High-volume servers often have more than one IP address.  So while you 
might look up an IP address using PING or NSLOOKUP for a domain name, it 
might be a different address than the one that HTTPAPI used 5 minutes 
ago. ( I don't know if this is an issue for Kim or not, just wanted to 
point out the potential discrepancy. )

It really depends on what she's using this information for -- which we 
won't know until she responds and tells us.

Maybe I should have HTTPAPI log the IP addresses used in the debug 
log... then you could always go back and see what they were.  Though, 
I'm still unsure what this would be useful for.
