	Don't use nslookup.  As a DNS debugging tool, it frequently falls 
down on you just when you need it the most -- when you're trying to 
set up a domain, or figure out why a domain isn't working.

	Use "dig" instead.  It comes with the BIND package, and should be 
installed in the same directory as the ISC BIND version of nslookup 
(as compared to the vendor version of nslookup).
