Your code works wonderful! but how can I make it become CGI liked variable, instead of hardcode the IP inside the codes each time?
Thanks!

Try this method below... public static String getHost(String ip_addr) { String host_name = null; try { ip_addr = InetAddress.getByName (ip_addr).getHostName(); }catch (UnknownHostException uhe) { } catch (NullPointerException npe) { } return ip_addr; } For Example, (if you wanna retrieve the host name of 216.115.102.77 ) import java.net.*; public class TestIp{ public static String getHost(String ip_addr) { String host_name = null; try { ip_addr = InetAddress.getByName (ip_addr).getHostName(); }catch (UnknownHostException uhe) { } catch (NullPointerException npe) { } return ip_addr; } public static void main(String[] args){ System.out.println(getHost("216.115.102.77")); } } if u get "w5.snv.yahoo.com", BINGO ! :) if not, sorry. bye- Wolfgang. =========================================================================== To unsubscribe: mailto [EMAIL PROTECTED] with body: "signoff JSP-INTEREST".
