Any DNS lookup facilities in Nettalk
« on: May 22, 2012, 12:55:47 PM »
Is there any DNS lookup facilities in nettalk where I can interogate the DNS records?

I need to monitor some DNS records but cant find anything in the HTML docs other than nettalk handles the dns lookups automatically but no mention of getting the data from nettalk.

TIA.

I saw that last night but its only giving me an IP address, I need to see everything from the DNS record like Cname, A, MX and any other entries that might be recorded in it.

I think this might be a case for something like http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ms741522%28v=vs.85%29.aspx and maybe other Winsock2 api's.

yeah maybe.
At the moment the only function I'm aware of is the NetOptions one.
