Dig Library for FatDog?

Post by Neo_78 »

Is there a way to get the dig library for DNS troubleshooting working in FatDog?

https://linux.die.net/man/1/dig

Thanks for your feedback!

You could try to build it and its dependencies from sources.
Or you could try to put together the binaries and library dependencies from various Debian packages for a compatible Debian version, that is, one that runs the same glibc version as Fatdog's. Dig appears to be part of the dnsutils Debian package.

@Neo_78

The package Bind-Utilities contains the "dig" application.

The package and instructions on how to build it are available here:

BIND Utilities is not a separate package, it is a collection of the client side programs that are included with BIND-9.18.12. The BIND package includes the client side programs nslookup, dig and host. If you install BIND server, these programs will be installed automatically. This section is for those users who don't need the complete BIND server, but need these client side applications.

Alternatively, look in your PPM. In Fossapup64 it is listed as Bind9-dnsutils
