hey, I have a web service here, with a few aspx pages too. I want it to
display the current web service URL.

now the first example I have found is
System.Net.Dns.Resolve(System.Net.Dns.GetHostName()).AddressList[0].ToString()

but this gets the local IP addres of the computer. if I were running this
computer on a server, would this IP address be static and be the one I'm
looking for??

another sample I have here merely asks whatismyip.com for the external
internet IP address

               // Create a new WebClient instance.
               WebClient webClient = new WebClient();

               // Download the Web resource and save it into a data buffer.
               byte[] myDataBuffer =
webClient.DownloadData("http://www.whatismyip.com/automation/n09230945.asp");

               // Display the downloaded data.
               string download = Encoding.ASCII.GetString(myDataBuffer);

this returns the web IP address. is this possibly the right IP addres if the
server was a static IP web server?

can someone help clear this confusion?

thanks.
