I don't think anyone hates nslookup (well maybe a few do <grin>) I suppose the immense dislike stems from the fact that it's the default utility under Windows. Folks who use dig as their default realize that when used properly, dig provides much more functionality than nslookup. For example, try using TSIG with nslookup or getting a NSID response. These are only a couple of examples. There's other reasons to change. The output from dig is much more comprehensive. And, yes, if you install the bind tools from ISC under Windows, dig works quite well. Just my $.02 Bob
