Hi. I've read about using request.remote_ip to resolve an IP from an incoming request. Is there a similar way to resolve the hostname from an incoming request or do I need to use the IP in combination with some other library?
irb(main):001:0> require 'resolv' => true irb(main):002:0> Resolv.getname('72.36.232.219') => "bravo.pjkh.com"
It's going to slow your site down however... DNS can take some time... you may want to cache the data locally or look into having a very close caching nameserver, etc.
