DNSApe – Fast, free network tools (opens in new tab)

Today we're releasing DNSApe (https://dnsape.com), a free network tool for anyone that deals with websites on a daily basis. We provide the following tools at launch.

  * **DNS Records** - list DNS records for a domain
  * **DNS Traversal** - show DNS records from root, TLD, and authoritative name servers
  * **DNS Cache** - show DNS records from popular DNS servers
  * **HTTP Headers** - get HTTP headers for a domain
  * **Whois** - Whois lookup (we never save any lookups)
  * **IP Whois** - just what is sounds like...
  * **RBL** - troubleshoot email deliver-ability by checking if domain is listed in email reverse block lists
  * **Ping** - a simple ping from our server

Future features include keyboard shortcuts, upload time calculator, subnet calculator, and other network-related tools. You can vote on features here (https://dnsape.featureupvote.com).

We also released a large update to our primary srvAudit (https://srvaudit.com) application. If you have a need to track logins and command history for Linux servers, check it out!

We're releasing this as open source under the MIT license here (https://github.com/srvaudit) soon. We're looking for feedback and suggestions, and of course contributors are welcome!

Nice tools, thanks!

I notice that when I feed my domain name into DNSApe, I appear to get ‘Listed’ results for the following: dnsbl.njabl.org, combined.njabl.org

According to Wikipedia (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Not_Just_Another_Bogus_List), this service is defunct, though. Am I missing something?

Also, it’d be great if ‘ping’ failed gracefully when the cited domain name doesn’t resolve to a hostname. Right now, it gives me a load of output that identifies file system paths to PHP scripts, and your use of laravel and shell commands.
