Checking DNS status of a site
There are situations where you need to quickly check if the DNS records for a particular site
have been updated in the public DNS servers after you make certain changes. The following is a simple script that does just that :
- First create a file named digsite.servers containing a list of public DNS servers against whom you want to check your DNS records.

servers=""
checkServer()
{
c1=0
c2=0
set="NOT SET"
