gethostbyname



Hi

We have a Windows 2003 server where an application program gets the
host name using the gethostbyname() API. This was returning the FQDN in

all lowercase, but now it has started returning the hostname in all
uppercase. What could be the issue here? We are facing problems here
since we try to insert this data into a case sensitive DB.

The server is in a domain. It used to return server.domain.com but now
it returns SERVER.domain.com
