HI, all:

     I noticed that wireshark can show the host name(or website url) for an ip address precisely. I need such a function which can convert an IP address to the host name precisely. With linux command "whois", the result is very coarse. Can anyone tell how wireshark did the conversion and can I write some scripts or a small program to do this? I mean the input is an IP address while the output is a host name or URL, Thanks!
