    How can I check a DNS server entry from Linux?

    How can I check a DNS server from Linux?

    I want to check that I have a correct entry in a DNS server before I change the registry settings to it? Its currently hosted somewhere else.

    Can I do this with dig? If so anyone know the syntax?

    Thanks

      That should work, or you can just

      nslookup www.yourdomain.com NSSERVER (127.0.0.1)
      SIG TOO BIG! Maximum 120x60 button and no more than 3 text lines of DEFAULT SIZE and COLOR. Unless your sig is for a GFY top banner sponsor, then you may use a 624x80 instead of a 120x60.
