i seem to recall seeing that nslookup is deprecated. we're supposed to use dig or zone or dnsquery now. (probably there's a good reason, or maybe my other personality just made this all up.) http://packages.debian.org/nslookup indeed says there's no such package. but -- whoops -- searching package contents (from packages.debian.org) for nslookup shows it's in "net/dnsutils" which also provides bind. apparently, it's still available for stable/woody, anyhow. (or my "it's deprecated" theory is all wet, which is quite likely.) -- I use Debian/GNU Linux version 3.0; Linux server 2.4.20-k6 #1 Mon Jan 13 23:49:14 EST 2003 i586 unknown DEBIAN NEWBIE TIP #19 from Dave Sherohman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> and Will Trillich <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> : How do you determine WHICH NETWORK SERVICES ARE OPEN (active)? Try "netstat -a | grep LISTEN". To see numeric values (instead of the common names for services using a particular port) then try "netstat -na" instead. For more info, look at "man netstat". Also try "lsof -i" as root. "man lsof" for details. Also see http://newbieDoc.sourceForge.net/ ... -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
