Hi

For debugging purposes I would like to get a hostname (from an ip) on a 
ic page

I have tryed following (with an lot of variations over "use Socket", 
Socket:.....)

[perl]
$hostip="1.2.3.4";
return(gethostbyaddr(Socket::inet_aton($hostip),Socket::AF_INET) );
[/perl]

But it alvays gives an error, like
- Safe: 'gethostbyaddr' trapped by operation
- Undefined subroutine &Socket::inet_aton
- "use" not allowed in expression

If I want to make an 'lookup' of the hostname. Do I have to make an 
usertag to do it ?
