session_maxdns

The session_maxdns function resolves the IP address of the client associated with a specified session into its DNS name. The function returns a newly allocated string. You can use session_maxdns to change the numeric IP address into more readable format.

This function works only if the DNS directive is enabled in the obj.conf file. For more information, see Oracle iPlanet Web Proxy Server 4.0.14 Configuration File Reference.

Returns

A string containing the host name, or NULL if the DNS name cannot be found for the IP address.

Parameters

Session *sn identifies the Session structure.

The Session is the same as the Session structure passed to your SAF.
