dig
I want dig only to show the answer of my query.
Normally, it prints out alot of additional info like this:
;; <<>> DiG 9.7.3 <<>> google.de
;; global options: +cmd
;; Got answer:
;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: NOERROR, id: 55839
;; flags: qr rd ra; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 1, AUTHORITY: 0, ADDITIONAL: 0
;; QUESTION SECTION:
;google.de. IN A
;; ANSWER SECTION:
google.de. 208 IN A 173.194.69.94
;; Query time: 0 msec
;; SERVER: 213.133.99.99#53(213.133.99.99)
;; WHEN: Sun Sep 23 10:02:34 2012
;; MSG SIZE rcvd: 43
I want this to be reduced to just the answer section.
dig has alot of options, a good one i found was +noall +answer
; <<>> DiG 9.7.3 <<>> google.de +noall +answer
;; global options: +cmd
google.de. 145 IN A 173.194.69.94
It leaves out most of the stuff, but still shows this options thing.
Any ideas on how to remove it using dig options? I sure could cut it out using other tools, but a option with dig itself would be the cleanest and nicest.
