You can set DNSResolution on, in your svXXXX.cfg file for your websvr, you would set:

[NetInfo]
MaxConnectCount = 338
DNSResolution = ALWAYS

or use the gui screens to turn it on. Then, the REMOTE_HOST cgi variable (owa_util.get_cgi_env('REMOTE_HOST') in pl/sql) will have the hostname if know and REMOTE_ADDR will have the IP address. If the host name cannot be resolved, the REMOTE_HOST will just have the IP address.
