I think the title tells the whole story ...

I'm using release 1.02 and I'm SURE it's possible but can't find out how
...

Thanks

Compile with the -DMINIMAL_DNS directive. This will prevent DNS
reverse lookups, and make Apache behave better when there are
problems resolving DNS addresses. In the next version this will
be a run-time option in the httpd.conf file.

From the "Configuration" file

# -DMINIMAL_DNS is now obsolete. Use httpd.conf settings of
# HostnameLookups on
# or
# HostnameLookups off
#

I think this was in 1.0.2

From 1.0.3 Configuration file

# If you want no reverse hostname resolution, use -DMINIMAL_DNS
# If you want to have more secure hostname resolution at the cost of some
# performance, use -DMAXIMUM_DNS.

Hmmm.... I'm having the same problem. I rebuilt httpd after putting the
-DMINIMAL_DNS line in the Configuration file and there are still domain names
instead of IP addresses in the new log files. What am I missing here?

About 100% for sure you either didn't rerun "Configure" before rebuilding
or you are not running the same httpd that you think you are.
