Great input, Tony. But be warned WJ, if your client PCs are external to your network, then Private Addressing and NAT may make this whole exercise nugatory. For example, if your host network / server is on your 10.x.y.z (or 192.168.a.b) and your remote client is on his 10.x.y.y (or 192.168.a.c), then you may end up resolving the name for the remote client as being whatever has 10.x.y.y (or 192.168.a.c) assigned on its local network. IPv4 addresses are legitimately non-unique.

There's some redundancy here as not all commands work everywhere.
