Dear alitoday,
Salam,
As farhantoqeer told you nmap will help you. as well as if you can do tracroute to the ip and host ip might be it will have any dns records.
Best Regards.

Dear alitoday,
local machine ip=127.0.0.1
whats your eth0 ip
whats your remote eth0 ip address.
Dns working there or not. if yes so at command prompt type this command
#nslookup 192.168.0.25
above command will give you the FQDN (Fully Qualify Domain Name).
