Issuing nslookup without anything results in nslookup being placed into
interactive mode. There is no way that it gives the domain name and IP.
The host command requires the name of a host. If you don't give it any
arguments, it prints out the syntax, i.e., help. And domainname is used to
report the domain name that NIS/YP needs. If you aren't running NIS/YP, it
is ok that it is blank.
Did you read the man pages for each of the commands?
In other words, looks right to me.
