Hello
I have an IP Adress, how can I get the Domain name?
Is there a service on the internet that I can use?
I should translate one IP per day, so I think if there somewhere out in the
world a service I will use it.
(And how can I do it programmaticaly? just to know about)

regards remo
 
Hello!
I have an IP Adress, how can I get the Domain name?

Well at first: More than one Domain name can point to an IP Address
(i.e. A records in the nameserver). Thats very common, especially at the
cheap webhosters.

An IP Adress can have max. one reverse-dns name.

So it can be, that there is no reverse entry for the ip-adress, or
another domain, than you've expected.
Is there a service on the internet that I can use?

tehere are several tools, but because i have not much exirience with
windows, i dont know some for windows :(

"ask" which nameserver is responseble for that ip adress, aks the
nameserver for the reverse entry for that ip address.

can't solve your problem, but it hope that the background informations
are usefull.

regards, enno
