Seems to work okay.
prompt# nslookup www.epicsafety.com
Server: green.nook.net <-------
Address: 208.161.169.11 |
| non auth at nook.net
Non-authoritative answer: <-------
Name: www.epicsafety.com
Address: 206.169.182.67
prompt# nslookup www.epicsafety.com ns1.baysurf.net
Server: ns1.baysurf.net <------- authoritative answer
Address: 206.169.182.68 |
