We like to annouce that DNSDigger is now available from our website:
www.ernw.de/download/dnsdigger.zip

DNSDigger is a program to gather as much as possible informations from DNS Servers. Two different methods are used:

1. DNS Server Query Query every DNS Server that is responsible for the domain, primary and each secondary. Sometimes only one DNS Server is misconfigured, but that could be enough to get the whole zone file or a provider DNS is used. Some providers allow zone transfers from their DNS Servers.
2. DNS Digging The idea is to use the same technique as with password attacks based on dictionaries to find hostnames hidden in the DNS zone.There's a names.txt which contains the dictionary. The option HYBRID will append the nummbers 01 to 99 to each entry in the names.txt to uncover additional hostnames.

The tools might be useful for all pen-testers that have to gather DNS informations during a pen-test.

I hope you will find it as useful as I do ,-) cheers
Michael
