Hi all
Does anybody know how I could create a database function that accepts
an INET parameter and reverse-lookups the hostname via DNS PTR lookup?
Something like the dnsname command line utility in the djbdns package. I
need this function for analyzing firewall logs stored in the database
with ulogd.
You can write "unsafe" functions in any of the pl...u languages and also
pl/sh and "C". Should be simple enough in whatever language you're most
familiar with.
