Hi! Nice to hear from you :-) I already tried to post the following line as a possible solution to a possible problem under certain (unknown to me) circumstances on the online manual page for GETHOSTBYADDR (but my note 10755 was rejected): $TheName=trim(gethostbyaddr($row->THEHOST." ")); The original line: $TheName=trim(gethostbyaddr($row->THEHOST)); called using an unresolvable IP like xx.xx.x.xxx returned something like xx.xx.x.xxxMKJA, where MKJA represents some garbage I discovered was used to fill up to 15 chars (the maximum length for an IP). I guess an IP like 212.59.60.57 should do the job :-) > ID: 8884 > Updated by: sniper > Reported By: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Old-Status: Open > Status: Feedback > Bug Type: Network related > Assigned To: > Comments: > > I can't reproduce this.
