What's a "Computer Name"? If it's the DNS name, you could try
taking the IP and doing a reverse DNS lookup on it (gethostbyaddr()).
That may fail, though, especially for ISPs with large banks of
dialup lines where they don't bother.

If "Computer Name" is some kind of Windows-only thing, expect problems
with non-Windows systems.
