function that resolves IP addresses

От

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.

Any idea would much be appreciated.

Regards
--Marcel

give this a try if you don't mind using plperlu.  This was tested with Postgresql 8.0.3


create or replace function gethostbyaddr(inet) returns text
as
$$
use strict;
use Socket;
my $inet = $_[0];
my $iaddr=inet_aton($inet);
my $name = gethostbyaddr($iaddr,AF_INET);
return $name;
$$
language plperlu;

select gethostbyaddr('199.181.132.250'::inet);

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.

You can write such a function with a language like plperl or plsh.

Note that dns lookups can be slow and that might cause some issues for you
if it leaves resources needed for other queries locked while the function
waits for a response.

You could do this easily with plPerlU or plPythonU. However you probably
don't want to do this
as a per entry basis due to the reasons listed below. Run it as a batch
process.
