I have an unusual situation.  A program is doing a DNS lookup and often the IP 
address has no reverse DNS entries.  As a result the program hangs for several 
timeouts.  The call is not being made directly in its code, but is occurring in 
a system call.  There are no specific calls to DNS, its something else doing 
it.  I have been trying to track down which system call is doing it, but 
without success so far.  I have tried syslog calls around each of the system 
calls I thought might be the culprit, but my guessing is not very good.  How 
can I identify the system call that is calling DNS?  If I can find it, I 
hopefully can find another way to do whatever it does that does not involve a 
reverse DNS lookup.
