Short: DNS query tools Author: various authors Uploader: kamar ease rhein-main de (Klaus Heinz) Type: comm/tcp Requires: AmiTCP v4 (never checked v2 or v3) Architecture: m68k-amigaos Contained in this archive are the DNS query tools 'dig' and 'nslookup' from the bind-4.9.3-beta17 archive, adapted to AmigaOS and AmiTCP. I compiled them last summer but had never the time to polish them enough (IMO) for a release on Aminet. Due to some demand on Usenet and IRC I have now put together the binaries for those who would like to try them. Installation: copy bin/#? TO AmiTCP:bin copy help/#? TO AmiTCP:help ; only if the whois-service is unknown type db/services.add >> AmiTCP:db/services missing features: - I never checked the necessary stack size, 16384 works for me, less may give you trouble. - nslookup doesn't allow a ':' in filenames for the ls command: ls some.domain.org. > RAM:foobar but this happens also with the UNIX nslookup I have. If you make the appropriate changes to the (f)lex input file commands.l, let me know. - The binaries contain debug information (line), so FindHit may say something useful. Strip them to save about 100KB. - rather big executables, even if stripped. The programs include their own resolver functions (res_send, etc.), since those inside AmiTCP are not accessible.
