Looking up DNS and Nameserver Info
Are there any tools or websites out there which will show the DNS Record and Namerserver Info for my domain name, and which are not secretly designed to spam or harm me or my domain?
For instance, there are lots of websites out there that claim to offer free WhoIs information, but their real purposes is to track interest in domain names and then go out and register them before potential customers can get them...
Sincerely,
Rob

you can try network-tools.com. That's what I use to check all this info.
@Mods : Hope that is allowed and not against the rules.

If you want to get the registration records for a domain name you can download whois directly from Microsoft Technet.
Very easy to use, example:
whois webhostingtalk.com
If you want to query the DNS servers for records you can drop to a command prompt and just run nslookup. If it does not load change to the c:\windows\system32 directory.
Example of querying start of authority records.
nslookup -type=SOA webhostingtalk.com
querying A records
nslookup -type=A webhostingtalk.com
For Linux there is whois, nslookup, dig, dnsget, zonecheck

I used to use whois-service.com... but found out eventually they do not support the new gTLDs.
Now, on Linux, I use the command jwhois. eg: `jwhois webhostingtalk.com`
It performs recursive lookups, and avoids WHOIS spam. I'm not sure if there is something like it available on Windows.██ Canadian Web Hosting by evohost.ca
