Let's say the file with a domain name on each line is called "domains.txt" and your script is called "lookup.sh" --

Code:
#!/bin/sh

for entry in `cat domains.txt`
do
     lookup.sh $entry
done

Let me know if that works.

Edit: Forgot to add that you should put the full path to both the file and the shell script for best results.
