 The replacement for nslookup is dig, is it not?

No, it is indeed host since bind 9 IIRC.

FWIW, nslookup is deprecated. It's better to use 'host', which is in
net-misc/host.
I never understand this: I'm sure it is possible to get `dig` to behave 
less verbosely, but it always seems to display for more information 
than I require. Even with the this program is depreciated message, I 
find the output of `nslookup` far more convenient.

Re: [gentoo-user] IP address of a DNS

2003-09-12 Thread Joshua Banks
Are you looking for a DNS server to use or your trying to find a particular DNS server 
for what
ever reason?
Root DNS servers you could try ip addy 4.2.2.1 and 4.2.2.2. I don't know if those 
still work or
not though. You'll have to test for yourself.

If your trying to query and find info on a particular DNS domain then you would use 
the NSLOOKUP
utility..Lots of stuff on google on howto use for NSLOOKUP..

Hope that helps.
