Re: Host name associated with an IP address

[boothm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

The regular command NSLOOKUP works in CL. 

The bad news is that it is required to be interactive, but that may be 
enough for your needs?

The CL I used to test it is:

             PGM   /*  must be interactive..... */ 
             /* This Program does NSLOOKUP      */ 
             DCL        VAR(&IP1) TYPE(*CHAR) LEN(50) + 
                          VALUE('www.midrange.com') 
             NSLOOKUP   HOSTNAME(&IP1) 
             ENDPGM                               

and the response I got was:

"Nonauthoritative answer: 
 Name:    midrange.com 
 Address:  206.239.161.179 
 Aliases:  www.midrange.com 
 
 Press ENTER to end terminal session."

Hi!
Its possible to know the host name associated with an IP address, in a CL 
or an
RPG/400 pgm ?
Is there any API that can do this ?

Any help would be great.

TIA,

Silvio.
