Dear all,
it's kind of direct and easy to perform a  gethostbyname-like operation with
an asio::ip::tcp::resolver::query.

But is there a way to perform the opposite operation? I mean to perform a
gethostbyaddr-like operation where the input is an IP address, and output is
the associated DNS name.

Thanks in advance.

Best regards,
