CLI base DNS check propagation tool

Image

Note

  • While the tool works - it was hacked in an hour or so with the only purpose in mind to get some work done. That being said, there are still a couple of TODO/FIXME lurking in the code and likely a couple of refactoring needed... and of course, some test units. I am releasing it in the hope it is useful to someone else.

Requirements

Ruby 1.9.3

Getting started

  • gem install dns-check
