Convert DN to IP address

Blitz3D Forums/Blitz3D Beginners Area/Convert DN to IP address

I need to be able to connect to a server directly using the domain names. So I need to have a function that would convert the domain name supplied into a valid ip address so the client would connect to the server. I need to not be able to rely on someone else's server to get from the client to the game server. How can this be achieved in Blitz ?
