potential iptables problem

[Gene Heskett <gheskett@shentel.net>]

Greetimgs all;

Does anyone know how to relate a noaa call sign into an ip address?

I use the gkrellm weather pluggin to get me an uptodate weather report 
from the nearby airports call sign, but this has to be translated to an 
ipv4 address somehow, and I may have inadvertently blocked it with an 
iptables rule in my war against the robots that were burning up my 
upload bandwidth.

How do I go about determiniing that KCKB's ip address?  Or, how is that 
determined?

Thanks.
 
Cheers, Gene Heskett
