canonhost - canonicalize hostnames

As shipped in IRIX 6.5.7. Unchanged since IRIX 6.5.

NAME
     canonhost - canonicalize hostnames

SYNOPSIS
     canonhost hostname ...

DESCRIPTION
     For each input hostname, canonhost prints a single line on stdout
     containing the canonical name of that host.  The canonical name of a host
     is determined by calling gethostbyname(3N).

DIAGNOSTICS
     If an error is encountered while canonicalizing an input hostname, a
     value of -1 is returned and an error message is printed to stderr.

SEE ALSO
     gethostbyname(3N).
