It is easy to get the name of a machine. Make sure your application supports "winsock"


      WSADATA WSAData;
      ::ZeroMemory(&WSAData, sizeof(WSAData));
      //init winsock
      ::WSAStartup(MAKEWORD(1,0), &WSAData);

Now get the host name:

      char szHostName[MAX_PATH];
      ::gethostname(szHostName, MAX_PATH);

szHostName has got the host name

Now close winsock.

      //close winsock
      ::WSACleanup();
