- Given just a hostname, I'm trying to find its Internet address. I know that
- I could do this manually by getting a list of all the domainnames in North America
- and one by one grep nslookup for the hostname. (Haven't been able to get a list
- of domainnames yet). However, I'm hoping there is a much easier way of doing this.
- I'm trying to get the Internet address so I can email this person. But I don't have
- his phone number or address, only the name of his machine!
-
- Any help would be appreciated!!
