I am trying to get dns rerecord for domain using the dig example.com and host example.com . But keep getting these error codes on OpenSUSE Linux
-bash: dig: command not found
-bash: host: command not found
How can I install dig and host commands on OpenSUSE Linux?
The syntax is
zypper se --provides 'bin/dig'
zypper se --provides 'bin/host'
