193.131.2.157 doesn't resolve either. Sam Spade will tell you that the block of IP addresses that contains that address is assigned to Pipex, but it says at the top "193.131.2.157 has no reverse DNS configured". Rather than use SamSpade, open a DOS prompt and type PING -a 193.131.2.157 If the address resolves there, then either Analog or QDNS should be able to resolve it. (If you are using WinNT or Win2K, you can also use NSLOOKUP 193.131.2.157). >> (And I should point out that the previous references to 12.34.56.78 >> are only an example.

I have tried with this as - > QDNS /g mclennan-last2weeks.cfg /Y 212.53.64.30 > and i still get a file full of *'s. QDNS won't look up addresses that are already marked as unresolvable, so if the *s were already there, QDNS won't look them up again. You can force it to look them up again with the /S parameter.
