I have a perl program on a device that will retrieve the public ip. I 
noticed a discrepency between
ipaddress.net and an XML-RPC interface.


[root at cs-buford]# publicip -v
Using 'http://www.ipaddress.net' to determine real public IP.
Public IP: 108.162.237.224
Hostname : Unknown
[root at cs-buford]# publicip -vc
Retrieving Public IP from cloud.
208.65.90.32
[root at cs-buford]#

I was using LWP::UserAgent, but getting denied from CloudFlare on their 
end or some point.  I changed the code to use LWP::RobotUA. The IP above 
matches what I see on my desktop in FireFox.  My desktop and the device 
is at home on the same net sharing only one IP out.
