This isn't really a bug in Windows, since the official documentation for
Winsock[1] clearly states that the name returned by gethostname "can be
a simple host name, or it can be a fully qualified domain name."  Like
many parts of Winsock, this is slightly different from the typical
behaviour of the POSIX function of the same name, which usually returns
a FQDN.

Actually, while the name returned by gethostname() is *usually* a FQDN
on a POSIX machine, I don't actually think it's guaranteed there,
either.

For a C solution, the code given by danb1974 should work.  An easy way
to do it in pure PHP is, instead of just calling gethostname(), call
gethostbyaddr(gethostbyname(gethostname())).

Thanks,

-Rick-

Reopen, seems to be still valid.
