Re: Finding "Name Servers" (not NS records) of domain name

[Anurag Bhatia]

Thanks for helpful replies everyone!


I missed to understand Owen's reply here but he was kind and helpful enough
to explain me when I met him last week!

So simple logic of reading given name from right to left looking for
specific pattern (my old nameservers). I didn't realized that reading from
right to left digging NS for each zone coming in can pretty much solve the
issue.

http://dnscheck.iis.se

It's not as verbose and provides more direct diagnosis and recommendations 
on what needs fixing.

We have three of those on the Tools page at wiki.outages.org:

   http://wiki.outages.org/index.php/Network_tools

They optimize for different things, and have differing levels of verbosity,
but they are all useful tools.  Submissions of other such useful tools are
always welcome (though the wiki is moving to larger hosting this week, and
may be in read-only mode if you go there right now. ;-)

There's also a collection of system/network status page links there:

   http://wiki.outages.org/index.php/Main_Page#Outage_Resources

I hope to find a few free hours this weekend to clean that page up a bit;
link rot is no less prevalent for us than anywhere else.

Cheers,

Looks like a nice site, but I couldn't get past the captcha. "rn" looks
way too much like "m" and vice versa.

It doesn't say anything about both of the servers for your domain
currently being broken ;)

I religiously use http://squish.net/dnscheck/ the moment I suspect *any*
sort of DNS hinkiness.  Verbose, but *damn* if it doesn't hand me the answer
practically every time.

so you tested this with: dig +trace  ?
or dig NS domain @TLD.server  && matched against dig NS domain
@domain-ns-server ?

(you didn't give much info to go on here...)
