ABOUT
Utilities from the c-ares asynchronous resolver library.
DESCRIPTION
c-ares is an asynchronous resolver library. It is intended for
applications which need to perform DNS queries without blocking,
or need to perform multiple DNS queries in parallel.
USAGE
Look up the DNS A or AAAA record associated with HOST (a hostname or an
IP address).
Send queries to DNS servers about NAME and print received information,
where NAME is a valid DNS name (e.g. www.example.com, 1.2.3.10.in-
addr.arpa).
Print the country where HOST (an IPv4 address or hostname) is located.
The full source code is available in the 'c-ares' release archives, and
in a git repository: http://github.com/c-ares/c-ares
BUGS
If you find bugs, correct flaws, have questions or have comments in general
in regard to c-ares (or by all means the original ares too), get in touch
with us on the c-ares mailing list.
c-ares is of course distributed under the same MIT-style license as the
original ares.
