    PHP and gethostbyaddr

    I have a PHP script which contain the following code:

    $hostname = gethostbyaddr ($ip);

    Until yesterday, the gethostbyaddr returned the hostname of the given
    IP-addresse. But yesterday it began to return the name of the host the
    web-server is running on regardless of the given IP. If I do a 'host <IP>'
    from a shell on the same machine, I get the correct hostname.

    I have tried to restart the web-server (Apache 2.0) without luck.

    Any hints about what's wrong? Do I need to kick the OS in the CPU (reboot)?
