JE> I've tried this (with use Socket qw(:DEFAULT :crlf); at the top of the JE> script) JE> $machine_name = gethostbyaddr(inet_aton($userIP), AF_INET) or die "Can't JE> resolve $userIP: $!\n" JE> It works on the LAN, but not across a router to the remainder of our WAN. JE> Any ideas? I have used Net::DNS for something similar.
