Reverse DNS lookup ?

[Pjotr Wedersteers]

Hi PHP buddies,

I want to include a reverse DNS lookup (find host/domain for a given IP) in
my pagetracker scripts.
Is there anything prefab in the PHP world I am overlooking I could put to
use ? I know some sites that offer en Reverse Lookup function but I want a
non-interactive method. My server normally runs on Linux but right now I
have it on XP, as my linux server has some problems I need to address first.
So I can't rely on an exec to a *nix function right now.

Any pointers, scripts etc welcomed!
Regards
Pjotr

Might be a good idea to read what you're linking to before you post - I
quote from the above source:

There is also a Netiquette rule for how to deal with someone who has
violated one of the rules of Netiquette:

* If you believe someone has violated netiquette, send them a message
by private e-mail; *do not post a follow-up to the news*.
