Re: [PEN-TEST] DNS zone transfer tool for NT

[Adrian <adi77 () HOME COM>]

That would do the trick if you already have setup the primary DNS server (in
your TCP/IP settings) as the DNS server of the targeted domain. You will ask
that DNS server about the domain it points to; else you will ask your ISP(s)
DNS server or whatever server is set as your primary. I hope I'm clear here,
if not have a look at the following commands:

nslookup
> server ns1.targeted_domain.com
Default Server:  ns1.targeted_domain.com
Address:  xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx

{before you would try to do the DNS zone tranfer you would probably want to
set your query to ask the DNS server about any kind of records it has ....
> set q=any}

> ls -d targeted_domain.com.
........
> exit

Not sure if you can do this with a simple batch file ... maybe if you change
some values with 'reg' in the registry might do it but I'm not sure
(probably it needs a reboot as well ;) )

Couldn't something as simple as:

echo ls -d %1|nslookup >c:\zone.txt

In a batch file accomplish an:

ls -d <domainname>

in a scripted form?

Does anyone know where I can find a
command line DNS zone transfer tool that
runs on NT?  I am specifically interested in a
version of the Linux tool "host", or a working
Perl script (re: "use Net::DNS;").

Thanks,
