The hostname (the name of the computer) can be found in most Linux distributions by issuing the hostname command without arguments. Alternatively, you can view the contents of /etc/hosts. The hostname will be listed next to the IP address 127.0.1.1.
A DHCP server assigns the computer the IP address, while the DNS servers are responsible for providing names and lookup addresses when a computer requests the IP address of a hostname.
ping [hostname] or ping [IP address]For example:ping wiki.answers.comorping 127.0.0.1

To ping a host 1,000 times, you can use the command line in your operating system. On Windows, open Command Prompt and type ping -n 1000 [hostname or IP address], replacing [hostname or IP address] with the target you want to ping. On Linux or macOS, use the command ping -c 1000 [hostname or IP address]. This will send 1,000 echo requests to the specified host.
The host name and the ip address is present in the HttpRequest object. Usually it is passed as an argument to the doXXX methods. public void doGet(HttpServletRequest req, HttpServletResponse resp) throws IOException { // Get client's IP address String ipAddress = req.getRemoteAddr(); // Get client's hostname String hostname = req.getRemoteHost(); }

Resolving IP addresses means that uTorrent will translate the IP address of each peer into the hostname used by that person. This will not affect your transfer speed in any way. The only effect you'll see is what is displayed in the IP column in your client.
