+
+
+    <p><span class="command"><strong>host</strong></span>
+      is a simple utility for performing DNS lookups.
+      It is normally used to convert names to IP addresses and vice versa.
+      When no arguments or options are given,
+      <span class="command"><strong>host</strong></span>
+      prints a short summary of its command line arguments and options.
+    </p>
+
+    <p><em class="parameter"><code>name</code></em> is the domain name that is to be
+      looked
+      up.  It can also be a dotted-decimal IPv4 address or a colon-delimited
+      IPv6 address, in which case <span class="command"><strong>host</strong></span> will by
+      default
+      perform a reverse lookup for that address.
+      <em class="parameter"><code>server</code></em> is an optional argument which
+      is either
+      the name or IP address of the name server that <span class="command"><strong>host</strong></span>
+      should query instead of the server or servers listed in
+      <code class="filename">/etc/resolv.conf</code>.
+    </p>
+
+  </div>
+
+  <div class="refsection">
+<a name="id-1.14.4.8"></a><h2>OPTIONS</h2>
+
+    <div class="variablelist"><dl class="variablelist">
+<dt><span class="term">-4</span></dt>
+<dd>
+	  <p>
+	    Use IPv4 only for query transport.

+<dd>
+	  <p>
+	    "All". The <code class="option">-a</code> option is normally equivalent
+	    to <code class="option">-v -t <code class="literal">ANY</code></code>.
+	    It also affects the behaviour of the <code class="option">-l</code>
+	    list zone option.
+	  </p>

+	    Query class: This can be used to lookup HS (Hesiod) or CH
+	    (Chaosnet) class resource records. The default class is IN
+	    (Internet).

+	</dd>
+<dt><span class="term">-C</span></dt>
+<dd>
+	  <p>
+	    Check consistency: <span class="command"><strong>host</strong></span> will query the
+	    SOA records for zone <em class="parameter"><code>name</code></em> from all
+	    the listed authoritative name servers for that zone. The
+	    list of name servers is defined by the NS records that are
+	    found for the zone.
+	  </p>
+	</dd>
+<dt><span class="term">-d</span></dt>
+<dd>
+	  <p>
+	    Print debugging traces.

+	  </p>
+	</dd>
+<dt><span class="term">-i</span></dt>
+<dd>
+	  <p>
+	    Obsolete.
+	    Use the IP6.INT domain for reverse lookups of IPv6
+	    addresses as defined in RFC1886 and deprecated in RFC4159.
+	    The default is to use IP6.ARPA as specified in RFC3596.
+	  </p>
+	</dd>
+<dt><span class="term">-l</span></dt>
+<dd>
+	  <p>
+	    List zone:
+	    The <span class="command"><strong>host</strong></span> command performs a zone transfer of
+	    zone <em class="parameter"><code>name</code></em> and prints out the NS,
+	    PTR and address records (A/AAAA).
+	  </p>
+	  <p>
+	    Together, the <code class="option">-l -a</code>
+	    options print all records in the zone.
+	  </p>
+	</dd>
+<dt><span class="term">-N <em class="replaceable"><code>ndots</code></em></span></dt>
+<dd>
+	  <p>
+	    The number of dots that have to be
+	    in <em class="parameter"><code>name</code></em> for it to be considered
+	    absolute. The default value is that defined using the
+	    ndots statement in <code class="filename">/etc/resolv.conf</code>,
+	    or 1 if no ndots statement is present. Names with fewer
+	    dots are interpreted as relative names and will be
+	    searched for in the domains listed in
+	    the <span class="type">search</span> or <span class="type">domain</span> directive
+	    in <code class="filename">/etc/resolv.conf</code>.

+<dd>
+	  <p>
+	    Non-recursive query:
+	    Setting this option clears the RD (recursion desired) bit
+	    in the query. This should mean that the name server
+	    receiving the query will not attempt to
+	    resolve <em class="parameter"><code>name</code></em>.
+	    The <code class="option">-r</code> option
+	    enables <span class="command"><strong>host</strong></span> to mimic the behavior of a
+	    name server by making non-recursive queries and expecting
+	    to receive answers to those queries that can be
+	    referrals to other name servers.
+	  </p>
+	</dd>
+<dt><span class="term">-R <em class="replaceable"><code>number</code></em></span></dt>
+<dd>
+	  <p>
+	    Number of retries for UDP queries:
+	    If <em class="parameter"><code>number</code></em> is negative or zero, the
+	    number of retries will default to 1. The default value is
+	    1, or the value of the <em class="parameter"><code>attempts</code></em>
+	    option in <code class="filename">/etc/resolv.conf</code>, if set.
+	  </p>
+	</dd>
+<dt><span class="term">-s</span></dt>

+	  <p>
+	    Do <span class="emphasis"><em>not</em></span> send the query to the next
+	    nameserver if any server responds with a SERVFAIL
+	    response, which is the reverse of normal stub resolver
+	    behavior.
+	  </p>
+	</dd>
+<dt><span class="term">-t <em class="replaceable"><code>type</code></em></span></dt>
+<dd>
+	  <p>
+	    Query type:
+	    The <em class="parameter"><code>type</code></em> argument can be any
+	    recognized query type: CNAME, NS, SOA, TXT, DNSKEY, AXFR, etc.
+	  </p>
+	  <p>
+	    When no query type is specified, <span class="command"><strong>host</strong></span>
+	    automatically selects an appropriate query type. By default, it
+	    looks for A, AAAA, and MX records.
+	    If the <code class="option">-C</code> option is given, queries will
+	    be made for SOA records.
+	    If <em class="parameter"><code>name</code></em> is a dotted-decimal IPv4
+	    address or colon-delimited IPv6
+	    address, <span class="command"><strong>host</strong></span> will query for PTR
+	    records.
+	  </p>
+	  <p>
+	    If a query type of IXFR is chosen the starting serial
+	    number can be specified by appending an equal followed by
+	    the starting serial number
+	    (like <code class="option">-t <code class="literal">IXFR=12345678</code></code>).
+	  </p>

+<dt>
+<span class="term">-T, </span><span class="term">-U</span>
+</dt>
+<dd>
+	  <p>
+	    TCP/UDP:
+	    By default, <span class="command"><strong>host</strong></span> uses UDP when making
+	    queries. The <code class="option">-T</code> option makes it use a TCP
+	    connection when querying the name server. TCP will be
+	    automatically selected for queries that require it, such
+	    as zone transfer (AXFR) requests.  Type ANY queries default
+	    to TCP but can be forced to UDP initially using <code class="option">-U</code>.
+	  </p>
+	</dd>
+<dt><span class="term">-m <em class="replaceable"><code>flag</code></em></span></dt>
+<dd>
+	  <p>
+	    Memory usage debugging: the flag can
+	    be <em class="parameter"><code>record</code></em>, <em class="parameter"><code>usage</code></em>,
+	    or <em class="parameter"><code>trace</code></em>. You can specify
+	    the <code class="option">-m</code> option more than once to set
+	    multiple flags.
+	  </p>
+	</dd>
+<dt><span class="term">-v</span></dt>
+<dd>
+	  <p>
+	    Verbose output.
+	    Equivalent to the <code class="option">-d</code> debug option.
+	    Verbose output can also be enabled by setting
+	    the <em class="parameter"><code>debug</code></em> option
+	    in <code class="filename">/etc/resolv.conf</code>.
+	  </p>
+	</dd>
+<dt><span class="term">-V</span></dt>
+<dd>
+	  <p>
+	    Print the version number and exit.

+<dt><span class="term">-w</span></dt>
+<dd>
+	  <p>
+	    Wait forever: The query timeout is set to the maximum possible.
+	    See also the <code class="option">-W</code> option.
+	  </p>
+	</dd>
+<dt><span class="term">-W <em class="replaceable"><code>wait</code></em></span></dt>
+<dd>
+	  <p>
+	    Timeout: Wait for up to <em class="parameter"><code>wait</code></em>
+	    seconds for a reply. If <em class="parameter"><code>wait</code></em> is
+	    less than one, the wait interval is set to one second.
+	  </p>
+	  <p>
+	    By default, <span class="command"><strong>host</strong></span> will wait for 5
+	    seconds for UDP responses and 10 seconds for TCP
+	    connections. These defaults can be overridden by
+	    the <em class="parameter"><code>timeout</code></em> option
+	    in <code class="filename">/etc/resolv.conf</code>.

+
+    <p>
+      If <span class="command"><strong>host</strong></span> has been built with IDN (internationalized
+      domain name) support, it can accept and display non-ASCII domain names.
+      <span class="command"><strong>host</strong></span> appropriately converts character encoding of
+      domain name before sending a request to DNS server or displaying a
+      reply from the server.
+      If you'd like to turn off the IDN support for some reason, defines
+      the <code class="envar">IDN_DISABLE</code> environment variable.
+      The IDN support is disabled if the variable is set when
+      <span class="command"><strong>host</strong></span> runs.
