Thread: Linux / Unix: Convert ip into domain name

If I want to check domain name for a IP how it is to be done?

You can use the "host" command to find out the domain name from an IP address. Have a look:

Code:

[jralph@jralph-linux ~]$ host 72.30.2.43
43.2.30.72.in-addr.arpa domain name pointer ir1.fp.vip.sk1.yahoo.com.
