Lee,

Messages like this, and the one you sent me privately, are the reason 
that I usually don't even bother replying to messages on this list. I 
don't say that to denigrate you. I say it in the hopes that someone, 
maybe even you, will learn from your mistake.


Your "bottom line" completely misses basically everything that's been 
said in this thread. No one has made any statement about nslookup being 
"bad," or "worse" than any other tool. I have clearly stated the 
contexts in which the two tools are more or less suited for a given 
situation, and given reasons why. Others have expanded on those reasons.


If you still don't understand why, at least try to understand the when 
and how. Go back and re-read the thread. Look up the terms that you 
don't understand. You can even ask reasonable, specific questions to the 
effect of, "I looked up term XYZ but didn't understand how the zig 
interacts with the zag, can someone explain that to me?"


In other words, do SOMETHING to help yourself. Don't complain that no 
one worked hard enough to make you understand something that you seem to 
be working so hard to misunderstand.


Good luck,

Doug

Be careful though, all bets are off if you find yourself using something
that claims to be nslookup but which isn't the BIND9 version.

Re: SRV record not working

Extra complexity -- "man dig" yields 289 lines while "man nslookup"
yields only 160 lines.

Also, dig is not simply an extension of nslookup (which I long ago
abbreviated to nsl), but is significantly different, so it using it
involves the human analog of a cache miss.

When I started using Linux almost 20 years ago, I think there was only
nslookup, and no dig. So by habit, I tend to use it unless the extra
power of dig outweighs its extra complexity. I don't remember what I
used on Windows back when I was regularly using both.

I don't think anyone hates nslookup (well maybe a few do ) I suppose
the immense dislike stems from the fact that it's the default utility under

SRV record not working

2018-08-17 Thread Thomas Strike
Thanks all for your quick response. I didn't need a 2nd pair of eyes, I 
needed a 2nd brain. I didn't think that I had to use the fully qualified 
domain name and was just using the subdomain.domain.name for the 
queries. What can I say, I'm old and going senile. Your responses showed 
me the error of my ways. My record was working, I wasn't.


Thanks again everyone.

p.s.
I know that most of you hate nslookup but I have been using it since the 
90's and it's my go-to utility. I get the same responses whether I use 
Dig or nslookup. If nslookup doesn't return what I am looking for, I do 
use Dig also.



;I have created a SRV record for a new subdomain A record. I set 
;nslookup to use my DNS server directly and when I query for the A 
;record it returns it. When I set type=SRV and ask for the srv record 
;nothing is returned.


;My SRV record: _minecraft._tcp.skyblock.mc-game.us.    IN SRV    0 5 
;25567 skyblock.mc-game.us.


;I need a 2nd pair of eyes on this one.

;Thanks, Tom Strike

SRV record not working

I have created a SRV record for a new subdomain A record. I set nslookup 
to use my DNS server directly and when I query for the A record it 
returns it. When I set type=SRV and ask for the srv record nothing is 
returned.


My SRV record: _minecraft._tcp.skyblock.mc-game.us.    IN SRV    0 5

I need a 2nd pair of eyes on this one.
