#3529 - 02/01/03 02:04 PM Question for people who work with DNS
SilentRage DollarDNS Owner Registered: 03/04/02 Posts: 1273 Loc: OH, USA	What is the most convenient way can you think of for using a commandline dns lookup utility? Like what parameters would you find most convenient? What output would you find the most readable/useable? You see, I'm making one and am collecting ideas. _________________________ Domain Registration, Hosting, Management http://www.dollardns.net

SilentRage DollarDNS Owner Registered: 03/04/02 Posts: 1273 Loc: OH, USA	well, it'll be able to display anything, but what I'm collecting is ideas on how to issue the commandline. Also, in how it formats the return data. Ex: (current setup) C:\>dns http://www.yahoo.com 64.58.76.228 64.58.76.177 64.58.76.223 64.58.76.230 64.58.76.226 64.58.76.227 64.58.76.179 64.58.76.231 64.58.76.229 64.58.76.176 64.58.76.178 64.58.76.222 C:\>dns -vV http://www.yahoo.com (-v all answers, -V all fields) http://www.yahoo.com CNAME IN 1368 http://www.yahoo.akadns.net http://www.yahoo.akadns.net A IN 49 64.58.76.228 http://www.yahoo.akadns.net A IN 49 64.58.76.177 http://www.yahoo.akadns.net A IN 49 64.58.76.223 http://www.yahoo.akadns.net A IN 49 64.58.76.230 http://www.yahoo.akadns.net A IN 49 64.58.76.226 http://www.yahoo.akadns.net A IN 49 64.58.76.227 http://www.yahoo.akadns.net A IN 49 64.58.76.179 http://www.yahoo.akadns.net A IN 49 64.58.76.231 http://www.yahoo.akadns.net A IN 49 64.58.76.229 http://www.yahoo.akadns.net A IN 49 64.58.76.176 http://www.yahoo.akadns.net A IN 49 64.58.76.178 http://www.yahoo.akadns.net A IN 49 64.58.76.222 C:\>dns -tPTR 64.58.74.222 w1.dcx.yahoo.com (it used the default dns server as specified in the ini file, you may of course specify one) dns -s A.ROOT-SERVER.NET http://www.yahoo.com _________________________ Domain Registration, Hosting, Management http://www.dollardns.net

Mornse Member Registered: 03/03/02 Posts: 185 Loc: Vancouver	Allow it to output to a text file, oh, i guess you could just do like C:\>dns http://www.yahoo.com >> output.txt Right? Would that work? If not, make it possible to output to a text file. _________________________ Cha want some w***up? http://www.dopeskill.com

Gremelin Community Owner Registered: 02/28/02 Posts: 7192 Loc: Portland, OR; USA	I know that its a totally differant thing completely, but it'd be kind of handy if you could: C:\>dns -t undergroundnews.com and get an output of the traceroute file for say 30 hops :x... But thats taking advantage of a dns utility since traceroute and ping are two entirely differant tools :/. _________________________ Donate to UGN Security here.

SilentRage DollarDNS Owner Registered: 03/04/02 Posts: 1273 Loc: OH, USA	no actually traceroute and ping are almost completely the same (same protocol ICMP). dns however is of course a completely different protocol, and no I won't have that feature because of that. yes mornse, you can output the data from the query to file. Which is why I'll have options to include not only answer records, but authoritative records and additional records to recieve the full report like my current DNS lookup gives. _________________________ Domain Registration, Hosting, Management http://www.dollardns.net

SilentRage DollarDNS Owner Registered: 03/04/02 Posts: 1273 Loc: OH, USA	lol, well, nevermind. I decided I don't need suggestions (although they're still welcome). I finally sat down and decided to do some planning for the command-line rather than coding as I go. The command-line system I've developed fits all my ideals: Powerful - rediculously powerful typer friendly - pre-configure commandline profiles (reduces typing) readable/intuitive commandline options It'll be a downright joy to use! Imagine typing this into the commandline anytime: C:\>dns !yahoo And getting all the IP addresses associated with yahoo.com . Or how bout this: C:\>dns !IP http://www.undergroundnews.com !IP would have contained all the options you desire for your basic IP lookup needs. gosh DANG I love being a genious. _________________________ Domain Registration, Hosting, Management http://www.dollardns.net

Scalli0n Junior Member Registered: 08/01/02 Posts: 68	Mornse - just a tip - any program outputs via "command > textfile.txt" to textfile; it's usually a feature of the OS you're using. And no, that was not a flame.

Paragon Member Registered: 06/14/02 Posts: 168	Well, not any... Try the route command on windows. It won't let you pipe or redirect the output. It's a real pain actually, 'cause the help is more than one screen full. :-/

Well, I had already completed the program, but this is what it currently looks like with default settings. Is this good enough? (keep in mind that some domains have multiple IP addresses)

Code:

C:\Documents and Settings\SR\Desktop>dns www.bob.com
Recursively querying A.GTLD-SERVERS.NET (192.5.6.30)
Recursively querying ns2.adgrafix.com (140.239.36.2)
.
** Answer Records     **********************************************************
www.bob.com              A     64.55.188.20
.
.
C:\Documents and Settings\SR\Desktop>dns bob.com
Recursively querying A.GTLD-SERVERS.NET (192.5.6.30)
Recursively querying ns2.adgrafix.com (140.239.36.2)
.
** Answer Records     **********************************************************
.
bob.com                  A     64.55.188.20
.
.
C:\Documents and Settings\SR\Desktop>

(for some reason I had to insert periods in the blank lines cause UBB wouldn't show the blank lines)

Gremelin Community Owner Registered: 02/28/02 Posts: 7192 Loc: Portland, OR; USA	I think neo wants to have *.bob.com for: joe.bob.com mom.bob.com jack.bob.com he basically wants it so that it'll dns all of the various hostnames, which i think would be sort of difficult (never use impossible, always someone who will go the long mile to kick your ass). _________________________ Donate to UGN Security here.

SilentRage DollarDNS Owner Registered: 03/04/02 Posts: 1273 Loc: OH, USA	There is no way within the DNS protocol to enumerate all the hosts a domain possesses. _________________________ Domain Registration, Hosting, Management http://www.dollardns.net
