[jboss-dev] ServerInfo.getHostName()/getHostAddress() can show confusing information

[Galder Zamarreno]

Hi,

I'm wondering whether the current implementation of 
ServerInfo.getHostName() and ServerInfo.getHostAddress() are of any real 
use, specially when the value passed via -b is different to 
InetAddress.getLocalHost() which leads to confusion: You bind to X but 
ServerInfo shows host name or host address being Y.

Besides, there's no easy way of checking what's the IP to which the 
server is bound other than browsing through the system properties.

So, I'd suggest changing getHostName/getHostAddress to be based on 
jboss.bind.address system property and this is not set fall back on 
InetAddress.getLocalHost().

Thoughts?

Cheers,
