Querying a DNS server for ALL records
 
I would like to query (the authoritative) DNS server of a domain for all the records (A, CNAME, MX). I mean using a single command like (*) to fetch every record. Is this possible? If so, how?

dig any @authoritative somedomain?

Nope. That did not work.

Great. Posting that is worth about as much as not posting any reply at all.

try the host command

Code:
host -a google.com

Well, that did not work either. From this commands, the outputs that I expected should have included things like:

maps IN A ....
translate IN A ...

But these were missing in the output. I guess then it's not possible?

perhaps the -av option
Did you looked at man host, or man dig ?

Well, checked out the man pages. They are barren regarding this issue.
