Have a question regarding Open Object REXX under Ubuntu 16.04. I wrote
the following quick and dirty script:

#!/usr/bin/rexx
/* REXX */
If RxFuncQuery('SockDropFuncs') Then
Do
Call RxFuncAdd 'SockLoadFuncs', 'rxsock', 'SockLoadFuncs'
Call SockLoadFuncs
End
Say SockGetHostId()
Call SockDropFuncs
Exit

I expected it to return 192.168.1.154, which is my IPv4 address on my
home LAN. It works under Windows7, but when I try to run it under
Ubuntu it always returns 127.0.1.1

What am I doing wrong?

My first port of call there would be /etc/hosts. There's probably an entry
for 127.0.1.1 pointing to the host name of your local machine.

BINGO!! That was it, thanks. I commented out that line and now it
returns the proper IPv4 address.
