Get the server machine name in ASP.NET MVC?

Question

I have some code that generates an email and I want to include the actual server machine name that is running in the body of the email. (It's a clustered web environment, so I want to find out what actual machine is sending the email.)

I know I can use Request.Url.AbsoluteUri, but that gives me the URL (like www.mysite.com/MyController/Action) instead of the raw actual machine name - which might be MACH3234k323).

Is there a way that I can get the actual server machine's name?

Answer 1

Request.ServerVariables["SERVER_NAME"]

Answer 2

The name of the machine will be here:

System.Environment.MachineName

Answer 3

Use System.Environment.MachineName
