Search Again: DNS Expert, how to achieve the same... From: Scott Haneda Date: Tuesday, July 15, 2003 Time: 7:55:33 pm I am pretty bummed that DNS expert did not make it to OS X, will it? I have become fairly agile in looking up what I need with host and dig, however, DNS expert could perform tasks much like a robot, rather than making me the robot :-) One thing I liked to do about once a month, was paste in a list of all the domains I have, in my case, a few hundred, and check only one thing, that is if my request for my secondary to slave the zones had been performed. Often was the case I forgot to let them know, or they forgot to do so. I asked this once before, and can not seem to locate the email that was sent, but I also remember leaving the email with some confusion, perhaps someone can explain to me the best way to do this type of lookup and what to look for. Even better would be someone who can suggest a small shell script that could be fed a return separated file of domains and return a simple true/false as to whether or not it is even being slaved at all. Will there be DNS Expert for OS X anytime in the future? Does anyone know of a competing tool, or set of shell/perl/* scripts that can accomplish the same?
