Indeed. From http://search.cpan.org/doc/CREIN/Net-DNS-0.23/lib/Net/DNS.pm: mx # Use a default resolver -- can't get an error string this way. use Net::DNS; my @mx = mx("example.com"); # Use your own resolver object. use Net::DNS; my $res = Net::DNS::Resolver->new; my @mx = mx($res, "example.com"); Returns a list of Net::DNS::RR::MX objects representing the MX records for the specified name; the list will be sorted by preference. Returns an empty list if the query failed or no MX records were found. This method does not look up A records -- it only performs MX queries. >-----Original Message----- >From: Ramprasad A Padmanabhan [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] >Sent: Thursday, July 04, 2002 3:32 PM >To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >Subject: Module for DNS to find MX Records ? > > >Hello All, > I am working on a mailing project on LINUX and would like to know >the Mx records of hosts from a text file in a perl program >I know I can use programs like dig but they dont provide friendly o/ps >There must be some module written to do dns lookups :-) >Any pointers ? > >Thnx >Ram -- Peter Scott Pacific Systems Design Technologies http://www.perldebugged.com/ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
