nslookup

NSLOOKUP(1)							       BIND9							       NSLOOKUP(1)

NAME

       nslookup - query Internet name servers interactively

SYNOPSIS

       nslookup [-option] [name | -] [server]

DESCRIPTION

       Nslookup is a program to query Internet domain name servers.  Nslookup has two modes: interactive and non-interactive. Interactive mode
       allows the user to query name servers for information about various hosts and domains or to print a list of hosts in a domain.
       Non-interactive mode is used to print just the name and requested information for a host or domain.

ARGUMENTS

       Interactive mode is entered in the following cases:

	1. when no arguments are given (the default name server will be used)

	2. when the first argument is a hyphen (-) and the second argument is the host name or Internet address of a name server.

       Non-interactive mode is used when the name or Internet address of the host to be looked up is given as the first argument. The optional
       second argument specifies the host name or address of a name server.

       Options can also be specified on the command line if they precede the arguments and are prefixed with a hyphen. For example, to change the
       default query type to host information, and the initial timeout to 10 seconds, type:

	   nslookup -query=hinfo  -timeout=10

       The -version option causes nslookup to print the version number and immediately exits.

INTERACTIVE COMMANDS

       host [server]
	   Look up information for host using the current default server or using server, if specified. If host is an Internet address and the
	   query type is A or PTR, the name of the host is returned. If host is a name and does not have a trailing period, the search list is
	   used to qualify the name.

	   To look up a host not in the current domain, append a period to the name.

       server domain

       lserver domain
	   Change the default server to domain; lserver uses the initial server to look up information about domain, while server uses the current
	   default server. If an authoritative answer can't be found, the names of servers that might have the answer are returned.

       exit
	   Exits the program.

       set keyword[=value]
	   This command is used to change state information that affects the lookups. Valid keywords are:

	   all
	       Prints the current values of the frequently used options to set. Information about the current default server and host is also
	       printed.

	   class=value
	       Change the query class to one of:

	       IN
		   the Internet class

	       CH
		   the Chaos class

	       HS
		   the Hesiod class

	       ANY
		   wildcard

	       The class specifies the protocol group of the information.

	       (Default = IN; abbreviation = cl)

	   [no]debug
	       Turn on or off the display of the full response packet and any intermediate response packets when searching.

	       (Default = nodebug; abbreviation = [no]deb)

	   [no]d2
	       Turn debugging mode on or off. This displays more about what nslookup is doing.

	       (Default = nod2)

	   domain=name
	       Sets the search list to name.

	   [no]search
	       If the lookup request contains at least one period but doesn't end with a trailing period, append the domain names in the domain
	       search list to the request until an answer is received.

	       (Default = search)

	   port=value
	       Change the default TCP/UDP name server port to value.

	       (Default = 53; abbreviation = po)

	   querytype=value

	   type=value
	       Change the type of the information query.

	       (Default = A; abbreviations = q, ty)

	   [no]recurse
	       Tell the name server to query other servers if it does not have the information.

	       (Default = recurse; abbreviation = [no]rec)

	   ndots=number
	       Set the number of dots (label separators) in a domain that will disable searching. Absolute names always stop searching.

	   retry=number
	       Set the number of retries to number.

	   timeout=number
	       Change the initial timeout interval for waiting for a reply to number seconds.

	   [no]vc
	       Always use a virtual circuit when sending requests to the server.

	       (Default = novc)

	   [no]fail
	       Try the next nameserver if a nameserver responds with SERVFAIL or a referral (nofail) or terminate query (fail) on such a response.

	       (Default = nofail)

RETURN VALUES

       nslookup returns with an exit status of 1 if any query failed, and 0 otherwise.
