I tried what you have above, all worked great to the 'Dig' command. I got the requisite information from MY DIG command, but when I try
sudo dig @a.root-servers.net ns >root.hints
It gives me a 'root.hints: Permission denied.
error.
Since I am a newbie, what am I doing wrong>? I went on a created the 127 file and stopped after that so I don't loose my place.
any help would be appreciated.
if you wish to email me directly, my email is

thanks
