[pm-h] converting IP<->hostname and UID<->username

Can anyone suggest modules that can convert IP addresses to and from
hostnames, and UIDs to and from usernames? I've searched CPAN, but I
didn't come up with anything.
Or should I just call 'getent'? (That works for UID<->username, but not for
IP addresses not in the host file...)
