I just took a peek at our log files and the IP address is completely replaced. So take the 127.1.1.1 out and put someone.that.i.know.com in it's place. You could probably write a quick script to go in and replace certain IPs with whatever text you specified.

Unfortunately, I don't have access to modify that file. The DNS file I referred to was a cache DNS file that I create with rdnslogs. When I go into the cache DNS file, I see an entry like 172.1.1.1 * When I change the * to someone.that.iknow.com it doesn't seem to make any difference in the organisation report.

I see a partial IP address 172.xx in the Organization report and I want to
have it displayed as a name instead of an IP address (as I know who it is).
How do I do this?  I've tried to put an entry into the DNS file but that
didn't work.

Thoughts?


How about putting an entry in your /etc/hosts file for that IP?  i.e.

172.1.1.1       someone.that.i.know.com
