Excellent! That's what I was looking for. Since I don't want to worry about
the port at this point, I've just used 0:

ntalbott@proxytest:~$ ruby -rsocket -e 'p
Socket::getnameinfo(["AF_INET", 0, "www.noblepack.com"])'
["205.178.141.161", "0"]

Works like a charm. Thanks Guy (and everyone else that contributed)!

Sorry to barge in on your thread, but the topic reminded of
a question that you guys probably know the answer to:

How do I get the full name of the machine that I am on?
My current method involves ifconfig -a to get the IP and
nslookup to get the name.

Is there a ruby -e one liner to do this?

(Please forgive me if this is a stupid question.)
