Are you looking for just the name and domain name, or are
you also looking for contact info that address? If so,
and you are looking for that info from a non-UC address
maybe you are looking for the whois command.
The whois command (should be available on all systems
with TCP/IP) queries the InterNIC and/or related
servers for that kind of info. For example:
"whois -h whois.arin.net 128.32.49.10" would return
contact information for the address 128.32.49.10 as assigned
by the regional Internet numbering authority. In this
case, the record indicated UC Berkeley as the contact.
The -h tells whois to query an alternate server,
in this case the arin.net server, which handles
Internet numbering (as oppossed to domain names).
Hope that helps,
