@Ariya,

Try this command to query MX record for domain.

$ nslookup -query=mx ns3.dnsserver.test

Hello, I have several NDS servers. for example :

ns1.dnsserver.test
ns2.dnsserver.test
ns3.dnsserver.test
ns4.dnsserver.test

I want to check a record on all DNS servers using the nslookup command. For example, how can I check the MX record for a domain only on the ns3.dnsserver.test server using the nslookup command?

@Vinod,

Unfortunately, there isn’t any logs for dig and nslookup requests, you need to find out yourself the issue..

@Vinod,
