Is there a better way of doing it. You could use the resolver functions directly, but it's non-trivial to get it right (e.g. re-issuing requests using TCP if a UDP query results in a truncated response), and it will only handle lookups via DNS, not /etc/hosts, NIS, LDAP, etc. On Linux, you can use getaddrinfo_a(), but it isn't portable. If your program is GPL, you can use the GNU adns library.
