Ping utility

In the above example, note the line that states “Pinging mail.adelphia.net [64.8.50.100] with 32 bytes of data.” In this case “mail.adelphia.net” is the actual Web address of the mail server and does not need to be resolved. Write down this Web address and use it to replace your ISP’s one word mail server address (in your Web browser or e-mail program).

However, if the ping utility returned only the IP address, you will need to determine the Web address.

To resolve an IP address:

1 With the ping utility still active, type ping -a 64.8.50.100, (64.8.50.100 is the IP address returned from pinging “mail”), then press ENTER.

2 The ping utility returns several lines of information, including one that states “Pinging mail.adelphia.net [64.8.50.100] with 32 bytes of data.” In this case “mail.adelphia.net” is the actual Web address of the mail server. Write down this Web address and use it to replace your ISP’s one word mail server address (in your Web browser or e-mail program).
