Why didn't you just try:

[E:\Projects]python
Python 2.5 (r25:51908, Sep 19 2006, 09:52:17) [MSC v.1310 32 bit (Intel)] on win32
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
 >>> import socket
 >>> socket.inet_aton("127.0.0.1")
'\x7f\x00\x00\x01'
 >>> socket.inet_ntoa(_)
'127.0.0.1'
 >>>


This is on windows xp.
