PROGRAM - you mean I was supposed to write a program to do this?

I'm trying to use the API in an RPG program to return the reverse DNS
lookup.  I downloaded example code here...
It consistently returns nothing - zip.  I don't remember where I found
the code... (sorry!)

        You say that it works with NSLOOKUP.  But you don't say under
which
        circumstances it fails to work...    Is it failing on a ping?
Or are you
        trying to do a reverse lookup in an RPG program?  Or What?

        If this is an RPG lookup, which API are you using?   Can we see
a code
        snippet?
