Sorry, but you have to convert it to a string:

    private static String   IPToString(byte[] addr)
    {
        String dottedquad = "";
        for (int i = 0; i < addr.length;)
        {
            short sh = (short)(addr[i] & 0xff);
            dottedquad += Integer.toString(sh);
            i++;
            if (i < addr.length)
                dottedquad += ".";
        }
        return dottedquad;
    }

Note that while I call it dotted*quad*, it will work in that time in the
future when the byte array is longer than 4 bytes.  (IPv6, whose time has come)
