DNS commands
- dig
The standard tool for inspecting a domain's DNS records directly, straight from a resolver.
- dig-dnssec
The `+dnssec` flag: how to check whether a domain is signed and whether its signatures actually validate.
- host
A fast, script-friendly DNS lookup — one line per record, sensible defaults.
- whois
Who registered a domain, when it expires, and which registrar or network is responsible.
