You are catching herror but your code is resulting in gaierror.
Add socket.gaierror to your except line.
except (socket.herror, socket.gaierror):
newFile.write("No resolution available for %s" % (name) + "\n")
see if that works
Just a followon remark: always try to print the exception when you're not
certain of what it will be or what to do with it. So I'd augument Alan's code
like this:
except (socket.herror, socket.gaierror) as e:
newFile.write("No resolution available for %s: %s" % (name, e) + "\n")
