[BusyBox] Hostname resolution

[Paul TOTH]

Hi,

I've the same pb, hostname resolution need NSS with many libs...so I've
write a tiny DNS requester :D

resolv.h is part of a bigger project, so you probably have to add some
system includes...

just call
 int remote=resolv("tothpaul.free.fr","x.x.x.x");
where x.x.x.x is your DNS IP adresse, and tothpaul.free.fr the requested
host

BTW note that I'm a french Delphi coder, not a Linux system programmer :D

Best Regards
Paul TOTH <tothpaul at free.fr>
