Due to its arcane user interface and frequently inconsistent behavior,
we do not recommend the use of nslookup.  Use dig instead.
-- 

Example...

[mhw at canyon ~]$ nslookup www.ip6.wittsend.com
Server:		127.0.0.1
Address:	127.0.0.1#53

*** Can't find www.ip6.wittsend.com: No answer

[mhw at canyon ~]$ host www.ip6.wittsend.com
www.ip6.wittsend.com has IPv6 address 2001:4830:3000:2:204:8ff:fe00:1151
www.ip6.wittsend.com mail is handled by 10 remus.ip6.wittsend.com.
[mhw at canyon ~]$
