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. +
  2. +

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

    +
    3. +
+

+

+ +

+ 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. +

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) +
