      so use the above command in dos by going to start>run> type in cmd and hit ok when you see the black window open type the above command and hit enter, it should give you the host name although sometimes these things are no possible to see as the ip changes if its dynamic as opposed to static. So good luck!

          Hi there,

          Type the following command at the command prompt, this only works on Linux platform. In Windows platform it point to the DNS server address, hope it helps. Good luck & Take care.


          Code:
            host <ip_address>
