Hi,
What's the best/easiest/only was of getting a host name via an IP address?
Effectively, i'd like to "ping" a number of ip addresses and see what
the host name is so that I can present the list to the user.
Thanks in advance
Just in case: you are hopefully aware that one IP address can map to
multiple host names?
What you are looking for is called "reverse DNS lookup" and while I
don't know much about it maybe the wiki article is a valuable starting
point for a search: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reverse_DNS_lookup
Regards,
Sven
