[etc.] UUCP sites don't have IP numbers. >Just what *is* cts.com anyway? 'cts' = Crash Time Shareing. In reality, pro-lines aren't even UUCP hosts in the usual sense (UUCP = Unix-Unix CoPy and pro-lines aren't running UNIX -- most of them are //e's :-) 'crash' is a UNIX box and UUCP backbone host (owned and operated by Bill Blue, who unless my memory's gone completely off the edge wrote the original ASCII Express commware for the ][+). 'crash' also is the gateway for 'pnet' (people net), and 'pnet' hosts gateway for the pro-lines. MORAL: domain addresses don't equate to a host running TCP/IP, and no IP number means no 'ftp' capability. /s Murph <Sewall%UConnVM.BITNET@CUNYVM.CUNY.Edu> [Internet] or ...{psuvax1 or mcvax}!uconnvm.bitnet!sewall [UUCP] + Standard disclaimer applies ("The opinions expressed are my own" etc.)

If you wish to query certain domain servers then there is a utility (under unix, at least) called nslookup. Check the man pages for more information.... -chris

I'm on psu*vm*, as in VM/XA operating system. Is there an equivalent to nslookup for my machine?

Ben, geez - I'm sorry, I didn't see your 1st message. Anyways, if you look in the Programmers Manual for IBM TCP/IP for VM under CMSRESOLV you will find kinda what you're looking for. CMSRESOLV is a "programmers interface to the Resolver", it wouldn't take to much to write an EXEC to do do similiar queries as nslookup. If you don't have the manual ask your local support or systems people... -chris PS - why are we talking about this under comp.sys.apple2?????
