in reply to DNS script troubles

You should spell out what errors you're getting. Also, you're missing a colon on this line:
print "+ ptr mx txt A AAAA KX IN records:\n"
And you didn't declare $packet or $res.

    I get A windows dialog box: the perl interpreter has stoped woking
      Have you *declared* the 2 variables phenom told you about: $packet, $res?

      I suspect that is your problem.

        still crashes

        print "Web-Sorrow (Extra Tool) DNSpull v1"; use Net::DNS; use Getopt::Long; use warnings; use strict; my $Host = "none"; GetOptions("host=s" => \$Host); # usage if($Host eq "none"){ print "Usage: perl DNSpull.pl -host example.com\n\t-host - domai +n name\n"; exit(); } print "+ ptr mx txt A AAAA KX IN records:\n"; my $packet = Net::DNS::Packet->new($Host, "PTR", "MX", "TXT", "A", "AA +AA"); print $packet->string;
      Did you fix those errors I mentioned in the previous post?

      Also, I don't believe there's a "query" method in that module. Are you thinking of a different module? Try re-reading the documentation for that module.
