[winsock] Getting the machine name on which I'm connected

[hoshantm]

You need to do a DNS reverse lookup. There is a third party control to do that: http://www.dart.com/dns.asp
Yet, with a bit more searching on the net, you will certainly a free solution via the windows API.
From the command prompt nbtstat -a xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx (Where the xxx are the IP address)
Also from command prompt: nslookup

Thanks for the answers.

I've found some API funktions
GetHostByName() and
GetHostByIp()

They have also solved my problem
