Resolving Host Names

Most servers can resolve the host name of the client requesting a file. In other words, they can look up the host names for the corresponding IP (Internet Protocol) addresses. Sometimes servers are configured not to perform this function. You can have NetTracker resolve host names that are not resolved by the server.

To resolve host names:
  1. Click the Options tab. The General page appears.
  2. Select the Resolve host names check box.
  3. Click Save Options.
  4. Host names will now be resolved in any log file data you import from now on. If this is what you want, click Continue. If you want host names to be resolved in log file data you have already imported, you will need to delete your profile data and reimport your log files. (Note: If you do not still have every log file that you have imported into this profile, you will lose profile data by selecting this option.) To delete profile data, click Delete Profile Data.
