I'm not sure if this utility is installed on all distributions of linux by default (I would hope something similar is, at least) but this seems like a better way to solve the IP detection issue...

I commented/removed lines 78,79,80 and added the following:
Code:
$ip = `tracepath google.com | head -n 1 | awk '{ print \$2 }'`;
It should grab the ip for the very first hop towards the outside world (IE, your external facing network interface). I then added an unless($URL) just like the IP one, and am setting that manually. It seems to work well.

Anyone else have any comments on this?
