Hi all,
I have a list of domains (about 100 or so) in a text file called domains.txt, I want to find out the A records of all of those domains but I don’t want to do it manually for each single domain.
Is there a command that I could use to do this automatically for all domains?
Thanks!

Hello,
Yes, you could use this command to do a quick DNS lookup for all of the domains in the domains.txt file:
cat domains.txt |xargs -I % echo "echo % ; dig +short %" | sh
Hope that this helps! Regards, Bobby
