Using “/scripts/cpdig” as a diagnostic tool for DNS lookups.

Hello :) We published a new script in cPanel & WHM version 80 to help diagnose DNS issues - cpdig!

[root@hostname ~]# /scripts/cpdig --help

NAME
    cpdig

USAGE
        cpdig <name> <type> [--verbose]

DESCRIPTION
    This script performs a DNS query using cPanel’s DNS resolver. Its output
    should yield the same end results as "dig +trace $name $type".

    cPanel provides this script solely for diagnostic purposes; no cPanel &
    WHM feature requires its use.

Below is an example of a command you can enter to check which IP address a domain's "A" record resolves to using Terminal in WHM:

/scripts/cpdig your-domain-here.tld A
