REQUIREMENTS * DiG 2.1 or newer * Perl 5 or newer To see what version of DiG you have, just type "dig". The version line is near the top of the output and looks like: ; <<>> DiG 8.1 <<>> If you don't see it, you probably have a very recent version. Type "dig localhost any" and look again. The latest version of DiG is always available with the latest BIND nameserver package: http://www.isc.org/bind.html Perl 5 is required for the digparse script, though some later versions of Perl 4 may also work (4.0PL36 does not work). To see what version of Perl you have, type "perl -v". INSTALLATION 1. Edit the first line of digparse to be the path to your perl binary. Likely places: /usr/local/bin/perl, /usr/bin/perl, /bin/perl 2. Edit dlint and change the variable "rrfilt" to the correct path to where digparse will be installed on your system. /usr/local/bin is recommended. 3. Edit Makefile to set the paths of where everything will be installed, /usr/local is recommended. 4. Type "make install" to install dlint. Or, you can simply run dlint from this directory.
