aperçu
Trace a chain of DNS servers to the source
historique
dnstracer is a small DNS troubleshooting tool that follows the delegation chain for a name back toward authoritative servers. Its history is thinly documented, but the official pages show an early-2000s Unix utility aimed at explaining how DNS answers are reached.
The Mavetju project page explains dnstracer as a tool that determines where a DNS server gets information from and follows the chain of DNS servers back to the servers that know the data. The page revision marker is from November 2002, and the man-page source marker is from January 2002.
The manual page, dated July 8, 2004, documents the classic behavior: send non-recursive queries, follow authority records, detect lame servers, and stop after all name servers are queried. The official 1.9 source tarball was still being served by the Mavetju site with a 2008 last-modified timestamp.
dnstracer's adoption is mostly as a packaged Unix DNS diagnostic, not as an actively branded upstream project. Homebrew and other Unix package managers keep it available because it does one old-school job that overlaps with, but is not identical to, dig +trace.
Users run dnstracer with a domain name and optional query type or starting server. It is useful for visualizing referrals, cached answers, authoritative answers, missing glue, lame servers, and PTR/SOA/MX tracing paths.
dnstracer is package-nerd significant as a fossil utility that still earns a slot in package managers: no service, no config, no credentials, just a compact DNS delegation tracer whose behavior is easy to compare across Unix systems.
