Linux - nslookup
How can we look up the MX record for a given domain? How can we determine the mail server for a given domain?
nslookup -type=MX gmail.com
or use http://www.mxtoolbox.com
How can we look up the text record of a given domain?
nslookup -type=txt yahoo.com
How can we lookup a domain using a specific DNS server?
nslookup -type=txt astoundlearning.com dns1.registrar-servers.com
In the above example, we look up the astoundlearning.com domain using the DNS server dns1.registrar-servers.com. Instead of using dns1.registrar-servers.com, we can also use it's IP address.
