✨ NAME ✨

ldns-chaos β€” bestie, it spills the tea about a nameserver πŸ’…

It's from the ldns manual, section 1 (general commands), and it is so much fun, iykyk 🫢


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

ldns-chaos NAMESERVER

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

okay so picture this: you hand ldns-chaos a NAMESERVER, and the first thing it does is go get all the addresses of that nameserver. every single one. no crumbs left behind ✨

then β€” and this is the iconic part β€” it takes each of those addresses and queries it for its version.bind and its hostname.bind. that's it. that's the whole vibe check πŸ”₯

ngl, ldns-chaos is a bit more complex than ldns-mx. she's doing more. she's serving. main character energy, honestly πŸ‘‘


πŸ’– OPTIONS πŸ’–

ldns-chaos has no options.

that's right, zero. none. she simply does not take notes from you. she has no flags, no switches, no little -h to hold her hand. just give her the NAMESERVER and let her cook πŸ“


πŸŽ€ AUTHOR πŸŽ€

Written by the ldns team as an example for ldns usage. so like, it's a demo, but make it fashion πŸ’œ
