Is the a document someplace I can read up on what the contents of dig
mean? The man page doesn't give info on everything. 
Mainly what the "id" numbers mean. example

;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: NXDOMAIN, id: 10
;; flags: qr aa rd ra; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 0, AUTHORITY: 1, ADDITIONAL: 0

The only time I've ever seen an nxdomain is when the bill hasn't been paid
on a domain. Don't know what the id:10 means.

TIA.

Keith
