B.extremely
B为什么不可以,可以翻译成不是极其同意2.everyone doesn't agree to the plan,someone support it while I'm one of
those who opposed it .为什么不能用one of who opposed it
可以认为 who opposed it 是宾语从句啊,为什么不呢?
1.只能说不是“完全同意”,不能说不是“极其同意”,这在中文中也是病句.2.这里没有宾语从句,只有定语从句.one of those 其中之一；who opposed it 是一个定语从句,修饰those.Keyboard Shortcuts?

gethostbyname
gethostbyname &
Get the IPv4 address corresponding to a given Internet host name
Description
string gethostbyname
( string $hostname
Parameters
The host name.
Return Values
Returns the IPv4 address or a string containing the unmodified
hostname on failure.
Example #1 A simple gethostbyname() example
&?php$ip&=&gethostbyname('');echo&$ip;?&
- Get the Internet host name corresponding to a given IP address
- Get a list of IPv4 addresses corresponding to a given Internet host
- Converts a human readable IP address to its packed in_addr representation
- Converts a packed internet address to a human readable representation
Important note: You should avoid its use in production.DNS Resolution may take from 0.5 to 4 seconds, and during this time your script is NOT being executed.Your customers may think that the server is slow, but actually it is just waiting for the DNS resolution response.You can use it, but if you want performance, you should avoid it, or schedule it to some CRON script...
If you do a gethostbyname() and there is no trailing dot after a domainname that does not resolve, this domainname will ultimately be appended to the server-FQDN by nslookup.So if you do a lookup for nonexistentdomainname.be your server may return the ip for nonexistentdomainname., which is the server-ip.To avoid this behaviour, just add a trailing d i.e. gethostbyname('nonexistentdomainname.be.')
Better yet:&?php$ip = rtrim(`/usr/bin/dig $host A +short`);?&
&?php$nametotest = "";& & $time_start = getmicrotime();& & testipaddress($nametotest);& & $time_end = getmicrotime();& & $time = $time_end - $time_start;& & echo "Good Host Search took $time seconds&br&&br&";$nametotest = "";& & $time_start = getmicrotime();& & testipaddress($nametotest);& & $time_end = getmicrotime();& & $time = $time_end - $time_start;& & echo "Bad Host Search took $time seconds&br&";& & & & function getmicrotime(){ & & list($usec, $sec) = explode(" ",microtime()); & & return ((float)$usec + (float)$sec); & & } function testipaddress ($nametotest) {& & $ipaddress = $nametotest;& & $ipaddress = gethostbyname($nametotest);& & if ($ipaddress == $nametotest) {& & & & echo "No ip address for host&br&";& & }& & else {& & & & echo "good hostname, $nametotest ipaddress = $ipaddress&br&";& & }}?&
This function says "Returns the IPv4 address or a string containing the unmodified hostname on failure.This isn't entirely true, any hostname with a null byte in it will only return the characters BEFORE the null byte.&?php$hostname = "foo\0bar";var_dump($hostname );var_dump(gethostbyname($hostname ));?&Results:string 'foo?bar' (length=7)string 'foo' (length=3)
For doing basic RBL (Real Time Blacklist) lookups with this function do:&?php$host = '64.53.200.156';$rbl& = 'sbl-xbl.spamhaus.org';$rev = array_reverse(explode('.', $host));$lookup = implode('.', $rev) . '.' . $rbl;if ($lookup != gethostbyname($lookup)) {& & echo "ip: $host is listed in $rbl\n";} else {& & echo "ip: $host NOT listed in $rbl\n";}?&Tomas V.V.Cox
This logic solution to problem checking dns reverse name resolution:&?php$ip = gethostbyname($host);if(ip2long($ip) == -1 || ($ip == gethostbyaddr($ip) && preg_match("/.*\.[a-zA-Z]{2,3}$/",$host) == 0) ) {& & echo 'Error, incorrect host or ip';& & }else {& & echo 'Ok';}?&
gethostbyname and gethostbynamel does not ask for AAAA records. I have written two functions to implement this. gethostbyname6 and gethostbynamel6. I don't believe this issue has been addressed yet.They are made to replace gethostbyname[l], in a way that if $try_a is true, if it fails to get AAAA records it will fall back on trying to get A records.Feel free to correct any errors, I realise that it is asking for *both* A and AAAA records, so this means two DNS calls.. probably would be more efficient if it checked $try_a before making the query, but this works for me so I'll leave that up to someone else to implement in their own work.. the tip is out there now anyway..Here is the code:& & function gethostbyname6($host, $try_a = false) {& & & & // get AAAA record for $host& & & & // if $try_a is true, if AAAA fails, it tries for A& & & & // the first match found is returned& & & & // otherwise returns false& & & & $dns = gethostbynamel6($host, $try_a);& & & & if ($dns == false) { }& & & & else { return $dns[0]; }& & }& & function gethostbynamel6($host, $try_a = false) {& & & & // get AAAA records for $host,& & & & // if $try_a is true, if AAAA fails, it tries for A& & & & // results are returned in an array of ips found matching type& & & & // otherwise returns false& & & & $dns6 = dns_get_record($host, DNS_AAAA);& & & & if ($try_a == true) {& & & & & & $dns4 = dns_get_record($host, DNS_A);& & & & & & $dns = array_merge($dns4, $dns6);& & & & }& & & & else { $dns = $dns6; }& & & & $ip6 = array();& & & & $ip4 = array();& & & & foreach ($dns as $record) {& & & & & & if ($record["type"] == "A") {& & & & & & & & $ip4[] = $record["ip"];& & & & & & }& & & & & & if ($record["type"] == "AAAA") {& & & & & & & & $ip6[] = $record["ipv6"];& & & & & & }& & & & }& & & & if (count($ip6) & 1) {& & & & & & if ($try_a == true) {& & & & & & & & if (count($ip4) & 1) {& & & & & & & & & && & & & & & & & }& & & & & & & & else {& & & & & & & & & & return $ip4;& & & & & & & & }& & & & & & }& & & & & & else {& & & & & & & && & & & & & }& & & & }& & & & else {& & & & & & return $ip6;& & & & }& & }
mmucklo raises a valid point, however the function to use would be getmxrr() in the simplest case, or alternatively checkdnsrr() getdnsrr() does not exist.On another note, it can be a pain (when iterating with while loops for example) that on failure gethostbyname() returns the hostname, rather than FALSE. You could wrap it in a simple user function, to "correct" this:&?phpfunction fixed_gethostbyname ($host) {& & $ip = gethostbyname($host);& & if ($ip != $host) { return $ip; } else return false;}?&
One note about using gethostbyname() for checking email address domains:If the name doesn't resolve, follow up with getdnsrr() and make sure they don't have an MX entry before returning an error.It is possible for a domain name not to have an A record, but still have an MX entry.
Just a heads up. I was using this function on my site to verify email host addresses. I thought all was good, until a potential client contacted me and said they couldn't sign up correctly. They have a valid email address and domain, but this function failed. Good luck.
On a side-note, PHP (5.0.4, but probably other versions too) can cache gethostbyname information.In short, once PHP looks up an address, it may not actually perform another lookup as you may expect. In my particular case (I think) the problem was a change to resolv.conf didn't take effect inside PHP (although nslookup/ping etc worked fine). Stop/Starting Apache fixed it (although a simple 'restart' (kill -HUP) didn't).In short, if you change resolv.conf, stop and restart Apache.
Function returns boolean:&?phpfunction isDomainResolves($domain){& && return gethostbyname($domain) != $domain;}?&
I was using file_get_contents on a set of URLs. Some of them URLs were invalid (the structure of it was ok but the DNS hosts couldn't resolve them) and I kept getting an annoying warning. I wanted to check the DNS somehow but existing check dns function in php doesn't have one for windows and the one a person supplied there does not work 100% of the time.Instead use this function to try to resolve a host. This won't throw any warnings, you just need to check the output. You'll get the same warnings with fopen and fsockopen.
Note that if you pass an IP address to gethostbyname() it will return that IP address.
The dns entries get cached, whether they exist or not.& Expect really good response times after the first one.
I had difficulty getting gethostbyname to work under OpenBSD 3.2 and Apache, until I discovered that the default Apache chroot caused the problem.To get PHP's gethostbyname to work, you need resolv.conf (and possibly hosts) in /var/www/etc (assuming default install dirs).
If name resolution fails with apache2, mod_chroot and php5, addLoadFile /lib/libnss_dns.so.2to the mod_chroot config.
referring to ralphbolton at mail2sexy dot com comment:(at least in 5.2.0 + djbdns-dnscache) gethostbyname does not really seem to cache entries. If somebody notices a speed-up after the second lookup of the same domain - that's most likely your dns-cache itself, not some php-internal dns-cache.It does cache the entries in your /etc/resolv.conf (e.g. what dns to use) so I agree with him, that stopping and starting apache, will reload the resolv.conf.
When using PHP and Apache in a chroot environment on RedHat Linux, I have found that I need to bind-mount /var/run/nscd to get this to work. Apparently, the socket in that directory is needed for all the DNS things.
One way to discover your IP address automatically:&?php$myIP = gethostbyname(trim(`hostname`));echo $myIP;?&
In PHP4 you can use gethostbyname() but I have found this unreliable when doing lookups on entries that return A records on the private network. PHP5 has a much better routine -- dns_get_record(). If you are stuck with PHP4 or don't want to upgrade you can use dig:&?php$ip = `/usr/bin/dig $host A +short`;?&
&?php$nametotest = "";& & testipaddress($nametotest);$nametotest = "";testipaddress($nametotest);& & function testipaddress ($nametotest) {& & $ipaddress = $nametotest;& & $ipaddress = gethostbyname($nametotest);& & if ($ipaddress == $nametotest) {& & & & echo "No ip address for host, so host "& & & & & && . "not currently available in DNS and "& & & & & && . "probably offline for some time&BR&";& & }& & else {& & & & echo "good hostname, ipaddress = $ipaddress&BR&";& & }}?&
Grabbing IPs for multiple hosts:&?phpfunction getAddrByHost($hosts, $timeout = 3) {& $returnString = '';& foreach ($hosts as $host) {& & $query = `nslookup -timeout=$timeout -retry=1 $host`;& & if (preg_match('/\nAddress: (.*)\n/', $query, $matches))& & & $returnString .= trim($matches[1]) . '&br&';& & $returnString .= $host . '&br&';& }& return $returnString;}$hostArray[] = '';$hostArray[] = '';$returnString = getAddrByHost($hostArray);echo $returnString;?&
I put this in a prepend script for all my websites to cut down the amount of abuse by automated scripts.&?PHP& & & & $blacklists = array('web.sorbs.net');& & & & $parts& = explode('.', $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']);& & & & $ip& && = implode('.', array_reverse($parts)) . '.';& & & & foreach($blacklists as $bl) {& & & & & & & & $check = $ip . $bl;& & & & & & & & if ($check != gethostbyname($check)) {& & & & & & & & & & & & & & & & error_log('PHP Security: [DNSBL] - ' . $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'] . ' - ' . $bl);& & & & & & & & & & & & & & & & die('Put a detailed error here so the client knows why they have been blocked');& & & & & & & & }& & & & }?&
This is the best method I've come up with to resolve any host-name to ip-address, it's quick and reliable and has support for timeout! An invalid address, a unicode string for exmaple, returns after 4~ seconds, instead of 8~ with gethostbyname! It works only with unix though.&?phpfunction getAddrByHost($host, $timeout = 3) {&& $query = `nslookup -timeout=$timeout -retry=1 $host`;&& if(preg_match('/\nAddress: (.*)\n/', $query, $matches))& & & return trim($matches[1]);&& return $host;}?&
