You could use dig instead. dig seems to only use DNS.

I thought that nslookup is going to find out the answer in *exactly* the
same way as the resolver library on my system does - that's what I
learned from O'Reilly's "DNS and BIND". Do you mean this is not so and
I don't have to trust it, as the book taught me? If so, what do we still
have nslookup for?
