in thread Getting external IP

Thanks that gave me my desired results :) Though I am not sure, why that works and mine did not. Time to read about chomp and re-read about get again. Then just need to figure out the last thing to not record a duplicate IP in the file.

    Glad it worked! I'm guessing that the issue was mainly the site you were using, as http://icanhazip.com/ returns just a plain external IP address.

      Ahhh OK makes sense to me. Again thank you for your time and knowledge.

        You're very welcome, vwyoda!
