I'm pretty sure it's on the 7.2 set. I installed 7.2 from ftp, and I
have nslookup in /usr/bin.

I have no whois, nor finger. One wonders why they weren't installed. I don't
use finger all that much myself anymore, and it seems more and more sites
are discontinuing its use.

Dunno if that would work - the converse might (linux to *bsd, but not the
other way around). Linux can't execute *bsd code AFAIK, but *bsd can
run most linux code.
If you want, I can mail a uuencoded copy of nslookup to you.
