ipaddr-to-hostname

Arguments: ipaddr &key ignore-cache

Returns, as a string, the hostname of the machine with the given 32-bit IP address, ipaddr.

The ignore-cache argument is new in 5.0.1. If specified true, then the lookup will be done by querying the operating system ipaddr lookup libraries rather than using a value that Lisp has cached. The result of the lookup is still cached, however.

See socket.htm for general information on sockets in Allegro CL.
