    Runtime domain name determination

      Hi,

      I need to determine the servers (2.4.x) domain name at runtime.
      Is there a class that I can use which delivers the domain name the server was started with? Or is there some other environmental information which I can use?

      Is there anyone out there to help me out?

          Since this is the JMX forum, you can get the
          MBean Server's default domain using the
          getDefaultDomain() method.

          However, I think you mean the domain name of the server.

          Start with
          InetAddress local = InetAddress.getLocalHost();

          Then you have two options
          local.getHostName();
          or
          local.getCanoncialHostName();

          The second method is potentially blocking because
          it can access a dns.
