#30270 [NEW]: Remote Hostname Not Found on Win98

From: trustpunk at hotmail dot com Operating system: Windows 98 PHP version: 4.3.9 PHP Bug Type: *General Issues Bug description: Remote Hostname Not Found on Win98 Description: ------------ I have been testing this script thAT I recently developed to search for an ISP/Hostname on my windows XP but when I tested it on my actual server which is a Win98 , it didn't want to read any hostnames from a domain or IP Address. Im just wondering , is this not compatible with Windows 98 because I don't understand why it works on WinXP with the same exact PHP version which is 4.3.9. I did do a search. Reproduce code: --------------- 01. IP Address: Example <?php $ipaddr = "68.47.121.23"; //IP Address Entered $host = gethostbyaddr($ipaddr); //IP To Hostname echo "Your Hostname: $host"; ?> 02. Domain Address: Example <?php $domain = "www.trustabyss.com"; //Domain Entered $getip = gethostbyname($domain); //changes to IP $host = gethostbyaddr($getip); //IP To Hostname echo "Your Hostname: $host"; ?> Expected result: ---------------- The first example should turn a IP Address into a hostname. Now I understand that not all IP's have hostnames but this IP Address does. When I view this on my WinXP it shows just perfectly but if im viewing this on my Win98 , it shows my local hostname only. Same goes for the second example. Note: This is a remote IP Address so their is no reason for it to show my local hostname , this is driving me mad. :( -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=30270&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (php4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30270&r=trysnapshot4 Try a CVS snapshot (php5.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30270&r=trysnapshot50 Try a CVS snapshot (php5.1): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30270&r=trysnapshot51 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30270&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30270&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30270&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30270&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30270&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30270&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30270&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30270&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30270&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30270&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30270&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30270&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30270&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30270&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30270&r=float MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30270&r=mysqlcfg
