RE: Hostname lookup by IP?

I think DIG is the new and improved version of NSLOOKUP.

I use DIG


/* before compiling CRTPF QTEMP/STDOUT RCDLEN(132) */
PGM &IP

DCL &IP *CHAR 15

DCL &X *CHAR 75

DCLF QTEMP/STDOUT

CRTPF QTEMP/STDOUT RCDLEN(132)

MONMSG CPF7302 EXEC(CLRPFM QTEMP/STDOUT)

OVRDBF (STDOUT) TOFILE(QTEMP/STDOUT)

/* DIG HOSTNAME(&IP) REVERSE(*YES) IPVSN(*IPV4ONLY) SHORT(*YES)
IDENTIFY(*YES) */
DIG HOSTNAME(&IP) REVERSE(*YES) IPVSN(*IPV4ONLY) SHORT(*YES)

LOOP: RCVF

MONMSG MSGID(CPF0864) EXEC(GOTO CMDLBL(END))

CHGVAR &X ('IP Address ' || &ip *tcat ' - ' || %TRIMR(&STDOUT '. '))
SNDPGMMSG MSG(&X)

GOTO LOOP

END:

/* DSPPFM QTEMP/STDOUT */

dltf QTEMP/STDOUT

DLTOVR STDOUT

endpgm

How do I do a hostname lookup from IBMi via 5250? The equivalent to "ping -a" from my PC.


Thanks
