Perform common DNS queries by entering the host name or domain, as well as by selecting the query type between A, ANY, MX, NS, SOA, PRT and TXT. #DNS query #Dns tool #Dns server #Dns #Domain #Query
DNS Thing is a simplistic piece of software that enables you to perform common DNS queries with the help of a user-friendly interface. It uses the Nslookup program to execute commands.
The tool doesn't contain complex options or configuration settings, so it can be handled even by users with little or no previous experience in networking utilities.
Setting it up takes minimal time and effort, since there are no special options, software requirements or third-party components involved.
It has a classical interface represented by a basic window with a plain appearance and neatly structured layout, where all options put at your disposal are visible.
It's possible to enter a host name or domain to look up with one click. Specifying the DNS server is optional. Moreover, DNS Thing has several types of queries lined up, so you can select the preferred one between A (Address), ANY (Any Available Data), MX (Mail Servers), NS (Name Servers), SOA (Start of Authority), PRT (Reverse IP Lookup), and TXT (Text Data).
Although it doesn't have buttons for copying, printing or saving scan results to file, you can make a text selection and copy it by opening the right-click menu or by triggering the global keyboard shortcut.
It didn't put a strain on the overall performance of the workstation throughout our evaluation. CPU and RAM consumption was low, and it didn't freeze, crash or display error dialogs.
On the other hand, DNS Thing hasn't received updates for a long time and doesn't leave room for configuration. Although you might encounter compatibility issues with newer Windows models, you can still test if you're looking for a free and easy-to-use utility to run basic DNS queries.
