Re: Host name associated with an IP address

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.
