    Re: Reverse the Reverse DNS in IRC

    Do you mean Chat1F30c524.verizon net ? because that would be a cloak key and its not possible to get a IP from it

    Wrong forum btw and welcome to Hexus
    Someone left a note on a piece of cake in the fridge that said, "Do not eat!". I ate the cake and left a note saying, "Yuck, who the hell eats paper ?

    Re: Reverse the Reverse DNS in IRC

    Indeed, most IRC networks will have at least an option for the users to hide their real IP for security reasons, and trying to resolve them in most cases will just give you the IP of the IRC server involved. Otherwise /dns IP is the only IRC bound command to look up that info.
    Moo.

    /dns isn't an IRC protocol command, it's just a client command to DNS resolver functions the client uses.

    Only ircops can see through cloaks with the /whois command.
