Shouldn't that be addresses[i].getHostAddress() ?

Otherwise that should work. What does
InetAddress.getLocalHost().getHostName() return?

If I do the exactly the above I get my machine's host name and proper DHCP
IP address, if I put in 'localhost' I get 127.0.0.1.

Not without resorting to Runtime.exec() or JNI AFAIK.
