How to get ip/hostname from python with admin rights

Question

How to get from a python script, running with cmd administrator rights, the hostname or ip from mapped letter? with this post Python 2: Get network share path from drive letter:

import win32wnet
import sys

print(win32wnet.WNetGetUniversalName(sys.argv[1], 1))

This gives me something like this when I run it:

C:	est>python get_unc.py i:\some\path
\machine	est_share\some\path

This works if I run without administrator privileges, but I need to run with admin rights.

You can do this with the stdlib:

import socket

print('Hostname', socket.gethostname())
print('IP', socket.gethostbyname(socket.gethostname()))
