I tried to browse the RFCs and went insane. Now that I'm back from the
padded room (with the unvaluable help from this pink elephant right
beside me) I'd like to ask you a question:

I want to write a VERY small, VERY dumb function that just asks one
query to one DNS server: What's (if any) the address of host
thishost.thisdomain.xx? Yes, I want a minimalist gethostbyname (for an
internet-enabled small device).

Its parameters should be the IP of the DNS server and the fully
qualified host name. I'd like the server to go fetch the address on
others servers it knows about. What do I do?

Thanx all,
--
