You can find the hostname of any computer with a public IP address by passing the address to any Domain Name System (DNS) server. The process of finding the IP address is achieved by searching the DNS (Domain Name Servers) until a match on the domain name is found. This process is also known as DNS lookup, NSLOOKUP or (erroneously) IP lookup

The process of finding the host name (or domain name) from an IP address involves sending a message to the IP address and requesting the computer located at that IP address to return its name.

There are some special IP addresses. 127.0.0.1 is always the IP address of every computer. No matter which computer you use, it will always have an IP address of 127.0.0.1 and a name of 'localhost'. In addition, a computer can have more than one IP address. In order to connect to other computers it will have an IP address that is known to other computers.

This simple tool convert the IPv4 address to the domain or host name that is associated with it. If the IP is dedicated to the domain or host, then it can see in a grid. You can also search your local network IP addresses with "IP filtering" window. No menu, no button, just a string grid and above it a pop-up menu and a statusbar.

Shortly it's proud of the most important functions:

• resolve host names

• detect your LAN IP address

• import and export data (clipboard, csv files)
