I've created a utility that inputs an IPv4 address and returns the DNS name.
It uses the DIG command with the out file option.
Does anything exist that does something similar?

I'm planning on using this as part of a larger project to create and populate a log file of all external communications, (FTP, SSL, SSH, etc)
