Gethostname gets hostname of the local mashine.
Second Unit is called "Unix" so i gess it works anly in Linux/Unix.

Well, gethostname can help you, but, it depands on what domain name you are 
trying to have...
For example, a computer can have several domain names (virtual host for 
example), and you can not have them all.
There are full programs such as dig that does just that (try to get the host 
names on a given IP).
