Description:   Enhanced DNS and ns/mx/rblookup utilities (991529-1)
New "host" features are: o Extensive error checking. o Optionally (very) verbose output and debugging info. o Checking for extraneous conditions during zone listings such as non-authoritative glue records and lame delegations. o Checking for illegal characters in certain domain names. o Checking for dangling CNAME pointers without RR records. o Verify that some host-related domain names are canonical. o Perform ttl consistency checking during zone listings. o Recursive traversion of delegated zones up to a given level. o Maintaining of resource record and host count statistics. o Option to check reverse mappings of host addresses. o Option to compare SOA records at the primary and secondary nameservers of a zone to check for anomalies such as out-of-sync serial numbers, and other discrepancies. o Recognition of many new RR types as defined by latest RFCs. o Allow multiple arguments on command line or from stdin. o Configurable default options via an environment variable. o Anticipate non-BIND behaviour during zone listings. o Facility to maintain local disk cache files for zone data. Includes "nslookup" and "mxlookup" host wrapper scripts, and an "rblookup" script to look up blackholed domains on ORBS/MAPS, but ORBS and MAPS are gone.
