Did you read the man page? It says without a command, it'll
prompt until it receives EOF (^D). Besides that, it says:
COMMANDS
Several commands are built into ndc, but the full set of commands sup-
ported by the name server is dynamic and should be discovered using the
help command (see below). Builtin commands are:
/help Provides help for builtin commands.
/exit Exit from ndc command interpreter.
/trace Toggle tracing (see --t description above).
/debug Toggle debugging (see -d description above).
/quiet Toggle quietude (see -q description above).
/silent Toggle silence (see -s description above).
Looks like you need a slash before your commands too. :) It's all
there in the man page.
