Run this code it will give you IP address.

var systemIP = "set theIP to do shell script \"ifconfig | grep 'broadcast' | awk '{print $2}'\"";
var getIP = app.doScript(systemIP, 1095978087);
alert (getIP)

Thanks a lot Shonky and appreciate for quick and correct reply.

Can you please also suggest how to deal the same on PC?

Sorry Anil, I have not idea for PC.

But i am sure its possible through vb script on PC.

Hi Tomaxxi,

First of all thanks for you help. I tried your script on Windows XP-SP3 with InDesign CS4 but it is not working. Neither it shows error nor any message while running from script window.

And when I run the the vbs file seprately it shows the below message

hope it will help to update the script.

Thanks,

Anil Yadav

Hey!

Thanks for trying script!

I just tried script on XP SP3 / InDesign CS4, and it works. Have you tried to add this in Javascript file:

alert(myIP);
alert(myGateway);

And error you got is probably because of app call for returning scriptArgs. You can't run vbs file with theese lines active. If you still have trouble, just post here, and I'll try to help you.
