Title:
/usr/bin/host utility cannot change port for DNS querires
Status in iputils package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
This is not a bug report. It is request for missing feature...
/usr/bin/host utility to check DNS is limited to send DNS queries to
port 53. There is no option to change port for DNS queries. Other
utilities, like dig, can change port. I can change DNS server but port
is always 53.
I found this missing feature while I was troubleshooting my DNS. My
ISP is hijacking port 53 and I found I cannot use host utility to
diagnose this problem...
