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?

Is there an equivalent to nslookup for my machine? It has nothing whatsoever to do with UNIX. If your FTP etc. implementation is done right and set up properly, you can open a connection using the domain name, without having to worry about routing issues. If this is not true for your specific FTP implementation, you need to beat on your system programming staff and get them to fix it.

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?????
