Curl in php and IP address

Question

I want to connect to the URL http://example.net using curl, but I need to connect with server with IP adress 192.0.43.10. How I can say to curl which IP adress it must use?

Correct me, you want to get an IP address by a hostname? Maybe gethostbyname() help you? — Empty, Jun 18 '11 at 19:01
I took the liberty of replacing test.com with example.net according to RFC 2606. Feel free to revert if that's not what you intended. — phihag, Jun 18 '11 at 19:03
I don't want to get an IP adress by a hostname. I want to use IP adress without editing hosts file. — Leonid, Jun 18 '11 at 19:19

$c = curl_init('http://192.0.43.10/u/r/l');
curl_setopt($c, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, array('Host: example.net'));
curl_exec($c);

A bit of an overkill. cURL can do everything he needs. – Savetheinternet Jun 18 '11 at 19:07
