By getting the name for the ip, the name includes the suffix (ie pc1.home.lan). But I wanted to use only the name, here's my script (very simple) - i'm too lazy to build a function: $ip = "192.168.0.1"; $dns = gethost($ip); $pos = strpos($dns, "."); $name = substr($dns, 0, $pos); echo $name; /*gethostbyaddr() tends to lag on various systems if your server is on a *nix system, this is faster*/ function gethost ($ip) { $host = host $ip; return (($host ? end ( explode (' ', $host)) : $ip)); } ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.gethostbyaddr.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+44013 Delete -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+44013&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+44013&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
