socket loop problem

[monamour]

Dear All,

I have tried to write a code which fetches the Host name and the IP Address for a user. The program is working nice as you can see below in the code,

import socket

def get_Host_name_IP():
    remote_host =input("Please put the pc name: ")
    try:
        host_ip = socket.gethostbyname(remote_host)
        print ("The  host name is: %s" %remote_host)
        print("IP address is %s : " %host_ip)
    except:
        print("Unable to get hostname or IP")


get_Host_name_IP()

However, when I try to use FOR loop to pass the parameter for more than one user through a text file which name is computer.txt is not showing as expected and drop the exception message instead Please see the code below,

Suppose the computer.txt is containing two names which are ABC & XYZ

import socket
def get_Host_name_IP():
    OsPcs = open("computers.txt", "r")
    Osdata = OsPcs.readlines()
    for i in Osdata:

##Here is printing the hostname without error
        print(i) 
        try:
### the following line is not execute
            print("And IP address is %s : " %socket.gethostbyname(i))
        except:
            print("Not done")

get_Host_name_IP()

The output is:

ABC
Not done

XYZ
Not done

Process finished with exit code 0

Any ideas?

Many thanks,
