|OK.
Our mails crossed. I think gethostname() is working ok. I running this code
from the same server that Sybase is running on, so it's normal that it
returns the name of the server.
However, I have lots of different scripts that tend to eat CPU when we're
not watching, so I need to be able to differentiate between them.
This was easy to do with the older scripts that are dreadful shell hacks
that talk to isql, because I was able to override the hostname column with
the -H flag of isql, which makes it possible to identify them. I would like
to emulate doing that via the more recent scripts that use Sybase::DBlib to
connect.
