76ca635d61eb3f9fb7c9d788a44fa8b1690aa138Dav Glass is a program to query Internet domain name servers. <command>Nslookup</command>
76ca635d61eb3f9fb7c9d788a44fa8b1690aa138Dav Glass has two modes: interactive and non-interactive. Interactive mode allows
76ca635d61eb3f9fb7c9d788a44fa8b1690aa138Dav Glass the user to query name servers for information about various hosts and
76ca635d61eb3f9fb7c9d788a44fa8b1690aa138Dav Glass domains or to print a list of hosts in a domain. Non-interactive mode
76ca635d61eb3f9fb7c9d788a44fa8b1690aa138Dav Glass used to print just the name and requested information for a host or
76ca635d61eb3f9fb7c9d788a44fa8b1690aa138Dav Glass Interactive mode is entered in the following cases:
76ca635d61eb3f9fb7c9d788a44fa8b1690aa138Dav Glass when no arguments are given (the default name server will be used)
76ca635d61eb3f9fb7c9d788a44fa8b1690aa138Dav Glass when the first argument is a hyphen (-) and the second argument is
76ca635d61eb3f9fb7c9d788a44fa8b1690aa138Dav Glass the host name or Internet address of a name server.
76ca635d61eb3f9fb7c9d788a44fa8b1690aa138Dav Glass </orderedlist>
76ca635d61eb3f9fb7c9d788a44fa8b1690aa138Dav Glass Non-interactive mode is used when the name or Internet address of the
76ca635d61eb3f9fb7c9d788a44fa8b1690aa138Dav Glass host to be looked up is given as the first argument. The optional second
76ca635d61eb3f9fb7c9d788a44fa8b1690aa138Dav Glass argument specifies the host name or address of a name server.
76ca635d61eb3f9fb7c9d788a44fa8b1690aa138Dav Glass Options can also be specified on the command line if they precede the
76ca635d61eb3f9fb7c9d788a44fa8b1690aa138Dav Glass arguments and are prefixed with a hyphen. For example, to
76ca635d61eb3f9fb7c9d788a44fa8b1690aa138Dav Glass change the default query type to host information, and the initial
76ca635d61eb3f9fb7c9d788a44fa8b1690aa138Dav Glass timeout to 10 seconds, type:

76ca635d61eb3f9fb7c9d788a44fa8b1690aa138Dav Glass the query type is A or PTR, the name of the host is returned.
