dns_browse(1) General Commands Manual dns_browse(1)
NAME
dns_tree -- command-line frontend to dig
SYNOPSIS
dns_tree [-f] [-v] [-d] [-t TYPE] [-m MATCH] DNS_domain
DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the dns_tree command.
This manual page was written for the Debian distribution because the original program does not have a manual page.
dns_tree is a program that works as a front-end to dig. Given a specific domain dns_tree will make several dig invocations to fetch a
zone and it will format the output in in a somewhat sensible hierarchical style (a tree).
Information extracted from the DNS relies on being possible to fetch a zone through a zone transfer. If the DNS servers for the requested
domain do not allow file transfers dns_tree will not be able to obtain information from the zone.
All data obtain is cached in ~/.DNS_BROWSE with an approximation of the usual DNS caching rules. Remove all files in that directory to
prematurely flush the cache.
OPTIONS
A summary of options is included below.
-t TYPE Show only records of TYPE. This argument can be repeated to indicate multiple types. Use the "all" type to print all the known
types.
-m MATCH Show only records in which the first component matches the PERL regexpt MATCH.
-h Show summary of options.
-v Enable verbose mode. All DNS requests are printed in the standard error.
-d Enable debug output. Presents internal information of the program
-f Override warnings (force).
SEE ALSO
dig (1), dns_browse (1), perlrequick (1).
