Trim machine name from Hostinfo

Question

I want to trim the machine name from my Hostname so that I can get the server name.

But I'm not able to figure out how.

This is my code:

 string machineName = System.Environment.MachineName;
 hostinfo = Dns.GetHostEntry(str); //Fetches the name of the system in the Network (SystemName.canon.co.in)   
 string Original = hostinfo.HostName.ToString();

Now the string contains the data like:

MachineName.ServerName
blah.comp.co.uk

So I want to remove blah. from the string so that what I am left with is comp.co.uk.

Can anyone help me out with it?

Answer 1

try this

            string Original = "blah.comp.co.uk";
            string[] ss = Original.Split(".".ToCharArray(), 2);
            string Result = ss[1];

EDIT:

            string Original = "blah.comp.co.uk";
            string[] ss = Original.Split(new[] {'.'}, 2);
            string Result = ss[1];
