Re-create the wheel disease but I have already re written the script

what I really need at this point is a way to turn symbolic addresses into
IPs and leave IPs alone from a command line. but I don't know of one that
works easily. I do appreciate the suggestions
though.
Fair enough, if you happen to have the package mysql-server, it comes
with an app called /usr/bin/resolveip which would do that task. But
more likey you will have the syslinux package which comes with
/usr/bin/gethostip. Example: resoveip -s pembo13.comgethostip -d pemb13.com

I
am trying to create a script to block people using hosts.deny. I
realize that I should just block everyone and then open access for
those whom I know I trust but because of the nature of our network
this is not possible. basically I check log files for login attempts
every five minutes and block those that attempt to log in more than 3
times that day. this is all working great but my problem is this. I
sometimes get log entries with the symbolic address instead of the
ip. how do I convert these in a systematic way and not have a problem
when I run IPs through it. I'm sure this is an easy task but I don't
now what tool to use.
thanks for your help
