(PHP 4, PHP 5)
long2ip — Konvertiert eine (IPv4) Netzwerkadresse in einen String, der das Punkt-Format enthält ("Dotted-Format")
Die Funktion long2ip() erzeugt eine Internet Adresse im Punkt-Format (also: www.xxx.yyy.zzz) anhand einer richtigen - ausgeschriebenen - Adress-Angabe.
Eine korrekte Adressrepräsentation.
Gibt die Internet-IP-Adresse als String zurück.
Beware when processing values that are invalid, you may get values that are different based on the OS. For instance:
$ip = long2ip(pow(2,32)+1024);
On windows you get 255.255.255.255. On linux it's 0.0.4.0.
So it seems it would be important to make sure the long you're converting is in the correct range.
If the function doesn't exist:
<?
if (!function_exists("long2ip")) {
function long2ip($long) {
// Valid range: 0.0.0.0 -> 255.255.255.255
if ($long < 0 || $long > 4294967295) return false;
$ip = "";
for ($i=3;$i>=0;$i--) {
$ip .= (int)($long / pow(256,$i));
$long -= (int)($long / pow(256,$i))*pow(256,$i);
if ($i>0) $ip .= ".";
}
return $ip;
}
}
?>
Random ip address! (4294967295 is 255.255.255.255)
long2ip(rand(0, "4294967295"))
when importing ip-ranges to a mysql database using an INT(10) field - NOTE: that you will get problems when using intval() function!

intval() handles overflow differently depending on the type of the argument.
<?php
// intval('10000000000') = 2147483647
// intval(1e10) = 1410065408
?>
I wanted to be able to pass an IP address in a URL always as an unsigned int. I then converted it back as shown below:
$ip_addr = "192.168.100.25"; // example IP address that converts to neg #
$s32int = ip2long($ip_addr);
$us32str = sprintf("%u",$s32int); // convert to unsigned string
// display orig IP address, signed 32 bit version, unsigned 32 bit ver,
// finally converted back to IP addr
printf("%s ,%d, %s, %s", $ip_addr, $s32int, $us32str,
long2ip(-(4294967296-$us32str)));
