The company for which I work is setting up a network, and it would be a great help to have the source code for the "dig" utility. Where would I find it? Could someone please e-mail the source or the name of an anonymous ftp site that has it? Thanx for your help. -Jim -- ____ | ( / floyd@wam.umd.edu | University of Maryland /._ _ floyd@eng.umd.edu | Computer Science \_/// X \ | Standard Disclaimers

You can find it for instance at mcsun.eu.net [192.16.202.1] in ~ftp/network/dig.2.0.tar.Z but I guess there are many others that have it. Another nameserver utility that I find very usefull is "host". There are some versions of this program around, but someone here rewrote the whole program and included some nice features for nameserver debugging. You can get it from nikhefh.nikhef.nl [192.16.199.1] in ~ftp/network/host.tar.Z. Make sure that you have the resolver routines from BIND 4.8.2 to get this working correctly. Other usefull network debugging tools are of course ping, traceroute and tcpblast as I'm sure there are many others.
