Re: Digging to the final IP
If all you are after is one of the final IP addresses (not the entire set), then using a dumb client might be easier. For instance, 'ping'. $ ping -q -c1 www.google.com PING www.google.com (203.66.155.113): 56 data bytes If you want to get more than one IP address, then you'll need an intelligent client such as 'host' or 'dig: $ host www.google.com www.google.com has address 203.66.155.49 www.google.com has address 203.66.155.50 www.google.com has address 203.66.155.44 ... www.google.com has address 203.66.155.45 www.google.com has IPv6 address 2404:6800:4008:c03::67 On 10/20/14, 12:03 PM, Fajar A.

RE: Digging to the final IP
We’re using this in a bash shell script. I don’t think there’s a native shell command to get the IP, so I’ll use a mixture of host and dig as necessary. Thanks, Frank From: Fajar A.

That feature runs on our system, but it doesn't digging through to a final IP or failure: getent ahosts mail.automatedwastesystems.net returns nothing.
