Where did Citrix NetScaler’s dig command go?

where did dig go?

In the latest versions of Citrix NetScaler ADC, the dig command is missing. Where did it disappear to and why?

The reason is relatively simple: recent versions of BSD from version 10 do not support dig anymore, it has been replaced by drill. The good thing is that drill has almost the same functions and parameters as dig, so you just have to replace dig with drill. The current Citrix NetScaler version 14.1, for example, usesĀ  version 11.4

Example:

drill norz.at @dns.josel.net
