    This command only works in IE, and not all versions. The machine name cannot be obtained by the client.

    require('dns').reverse(req.connection.remoteAddress', function(err, domains) {

    console.log(domains);
});

To follow up the comment of the question using this function your server will do a DNS reset and in principle should work
