Hi Irial,
I'm afraid I'm all tooled-out at dnsstuff! I use their tools all the time, but even the dnsreport doesn't do a full zone "dump"
Thanks

Is there an online resource that I can use to view complete zone information on an internet domain? I don't mean setting up a DNS server and examining zone files that way, I was wondering if there's a simple website that returns the zone information for any given domain easily?
TIA

You can't dump whole zone information from remote dns server unless You are authorized to.
It would be information flow, isn't it?
Normally under unix You can
host -t axfr domain.name dns.server.for domain
it will fail unless You are authorized
To find out auth dnsservers for the domain
host -t ns domain.name
You can't get all hosts by one command from the zone if the zone operator didn't allow you do that.
in the nsllokup there is a list command, it does what you are looking for, BUT don't be surprised if you get nothing as a result.
but to get all the data from the zone is better done by zone transfer request, as ravenpl showed above.

Hello budchawla,
Dnsstuff should have the functionality you are looking for:
http://www.dnsstuff.com/
Once you open the page, scroll down. Initially the web page only displays three tools that are used most, but the site features 18 different tools in total.
Kind regards,
