ID: 18966 Updated by: edink@php.net Reported By: php@silisoftware.com -Status: Open +Status: Bogus Bug Type: Reproducible crash Operating System: Windows XP Home (NT5.1b2600) PHP Version: 4.2.2 New Comment: This is most likely a bug in your system. I run your script on a Windows 2000 machine and it worked just fine. It simply printed '208.133.226.85'. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-08-19 11:07:07] php@silisoftware.com gethostbyaddr() crashes Apache (v1.3.24) when looking up certain IPs. Example script: echo gethostbyaddr('208.133.226.85'); Every other IP I've tried (so far about 40,000) didn't have any problems. I tried the above line on another server running PHP4.2.2, Apache v1.3.26 and some form of Linux (2.4.9-31) and that had no problems. Probably related: the Windows port of Webalizer crashes when performing DNS lookups on the same line of the log file, so I suspect it's something to do with DNS lookups in Windows (?). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=18966&edit=1
