Have you ever needed to resolve a host name to find its IP address? Simply use a .NET method and wrap it as PowerShell function:
function Get-HostToIP($hostname) {
$result = [system.Net.Dns]::GetHostByName($hostname)
$result.AddressList | ForEach-Object {$_.IPAddressToString }
}
$result = [system.Net.Dns]::GetHostByName($hostname)
$result.AddressList | ForEach-Object {$_.IPAddressToString }
}
