Your best bet would be to do this in another language such as perl or c
where you can build a multithreaded application to look these up. Along the
same note you can also split the file into a number of parts and run
multiple instances of the same script. Afaik, the only way to decrease the
timeout on a host lookup is to write your own nameserver query code. If all
of this is outside of the scope of your programming knowledge, I would
suggest biting the bullet and waiting for your script to complete. Then
make a system to process new entries into the system when they are received.
Also...why do you need to do this? It seems very odd.

Subject: [PHP] gethostbyaddr timeout
I'm at the end of my rope here...
I have a 100,000+ line file containing IP addresses. For each line, I need
to run a "gethostbyaddr" command. However, some lines take a long time to
timeout. Is there a way I can decrease this timeout period to one or two
seconds?
Thanks!!
