Thanks, that's helpful. Note that the command-line version accepts the "@server" option, which is useful if you have to deal with a mess of primaries, secondaries, forwarders, et cetera: dig @NS1 +short porttest.dns-oarc.net TXT dig @NS2 +short porttest.dns-oarc.net TXT dig @NS3 +short porttest.dns-oarc.net TXT --------------------------------------------------------------------- The Cryptography Mailing List Unsubscribe by sending "unsubscribe cryptography" to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
