What is Network Query Tool FOR LINUX?


Network Query Tool


Network Query Tool is your go-to solution for getting info about a domain name or an IP address. Instead of messing around with tons of shell commands or hopping from one website to another just to check a host, you can simply open up Network Query Tool in your browser. Just type in the hostname or IP, and let NQT handle the rest! You can see some awesome results right away.



Key Features of Network Query Tool


Here are some key features of Network Query Tool:



  • Reverse Lookup: This feature helps resolve an IP address to a hostname (if there's one) or the other way around.

  • DNS Query: Also known as Dig; you'll need a dig binary on your system for this.

  • Whois (WWW): Get all the domain registration info you need. It supports almost every known TLD, gTLD, and ccTLD!

  • Whois (IP): Find out who owns an IP address. It covers all IP blocks maintained by ARIN (US), RIPE (Europe), JPNIC (Japan), APNIC (China/Asia-Pacific), BRNIC (Brazil), LACNIC (Latin America), AFRINIC (Africa), and KRNIC (Korea).

  • Check Port: See if a specific port on the target host is open. By default, it checks port 80.

  • Ping: Runs a 5-packet ping to your target; just make sure you have a ping binary!

  • Traceroute: Does a traceroute to the target but requires a traceroute binary too.



Requirements for Network Query Tool


Your setup needs:



  • You'll need PHP 5.x—it's best to use the latest stable release! Starting from version 1.8, NQT needs those object-oriented features that came with PHP 5.

  • A standard ping, traceroute, and dig binaries are recommended for everything to work perfectly. These usually exist even on Windows servers, so no Unix environment is necessary!



A Quick Look at What's New!


The latest release includes several fixes like:


  • Catching bugs from the first rewrite.

  • A fix where domains with hyphens weren't recognized properly.

  • Catching issues with IP address lookups not working correctly.

  • A fix where .fr domains were linked to incorrect whois servers.

  • Banning unwanted spam in whois results from Network Solutions' new AboutUs page.
