NAME

       Sys::Hostname - Try every conceivable way to get hostname

SYNOPSIS

           use Sys::Hostname;
           my $host = hostname;

DESCRIPTION

       Attempts several methods of getting the system hostname and then caches the result.  It tries the first
       available of the C library's gethostname(), `$Config{aphostname}`, uname(2), syscall(SYS_gethostname),
       `hostname`, `uname -n`, and the file /com/host.  If all that fails it "croak"s.

       All NULs, returns, and newlines are removed from the result.
