You can see that sort of thing with the "dig" tool. If you do a "dig example.com" you'll get a collection of responses. The "answer" section is the domain name and numerical IP address for it, that you queried. The "authority" section will be the authoritative name servers for those records (the master host for them). An "additional" section which can provide info about those authoritative servers. And in the last bit will be the "SERVER" that directly answered your query.
One has to be somewhat careful as to the actual dig command used. By default the type searched are A records. So, if your domain name is also the name of a host then you'd need to use "dig -tany domainname" example: [egreshko@meimei ~]$ dig ibm.com ibm.com. 19 IN A 104.115.95.17 [egreshko@meimei ~]$ dig -tany ibm.com ibm.com. 20 IN AAAA 2600:1417:1800:289::3831 ibm.com. 20 IN AAAA 2600:1417:1800:286::3831 ibm.com. 3600 IN MX 5 mx0b-001b2d01.pphosted.com. ibm.com. 3600 IN MX 5 mx0a-001b2d01.pphosted.com. ibm.com. 86061 IN SOA asia3.akam.net. dnsadm.us.ibm.com. 1564134810 43200 7200 604800 3600 etc..... Also, if you are running a DNS server to for "local" addresses in your domain and your system's configuration points to the local server you would most likely want to add the @server parameter to make sure you get the "external" information. [egreshko@meimei ~]$ dig -tany meimei.greshko.com meimei.greshko.com. 86400 IN A 192.168.1.18 meimei.greshko.com. 86400 IN AAAA 2001:b030:112f::140e [egreshko@meimei ~]$ dig @8.8.8.8 -tany meimei.greshko.com meimei.greshko.com. 1199 IN A 211.75.128.214 meimei.greshko.com. 1199 IN AAAA 2001:b030:112f::140e -- Remind me to ignore comments which aren't germane to the thread. _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Do not reply to spam on the list, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure
