DNS to IP address.

==================

::

  $ nslookup example.com

IP to DNS address.

==================

  $ nslookup 192.168.1.1

NetBIOS name resolution

=======================

``nbtstat.exe`` command comes with Windows and allows NetBIOS name resolution

from cache.

NetBIOS to IP address::

  $ nbtstat -c

  $ nbtstat -a NETBIOSNAME

IP to NetBIOS address::

  $ nbtstat -A xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx

List of NetBIOS name::

  $ nbtstat -r

  cmd> netstat        # with DNS name resolution, TCP only

  cmd> netstat -n     # without name resolution, TCP only

  cmd> netstat -a -n  # TCP and UDP

  cmd> netstat -s     # show IP, ICMP, TCP, and UDP statistics.

  $ sudo netstat -tulp

or to use port number instead of protocol name::

  $ sudo netstat -tulpn

  cmd> netstat -o     # show PID

  cmd> netstat -b     # show also cmd name

  cmd> netstat -b -v  # show all modules (.exe and .dll) with full path

  $ sudo netstat -tulpn

  $ sudo lsof -i

How disable IPv6?

=================

Debian kernel 2.6/Ubuntu ("official" method)/Fedora Core.

---------------------------------------------------------

Comment in /etc/modprobe.d/aliases "alias net-pf-10 ipv6" and add alias

"net-pf-10 off", "alias ipv6 off"::

  $ sudo emacs /etc/modprobe.d/aliases

  ...

  $ cat /etc/modprobe.d/aliases

  ...

  # alias net-pf-10 ipv6

  alias net-pf-10 off

  alias ipv6 off

  ...

Reboot or::

  $ sudo update-modules

Another way is adding to /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.local lines::

  blacklist ipv6

You can safely wipe out any IPv6 reference in ``/etc/hosts`` and

``/etc/network/interfaces``.

RHEL4/Centos4.

--------------

As for Debian, but ``/etc/modprobe.d/aliases`` has name ``/etc/modprobe.conf``.

KDE.

----

::

  $ cat /etc/environment

  ...

  KDE_NO_IPV6=true

  ...

Firefox.

--------

See ``about:config`` page, set ``network.dns.disableIPv6`` to ``true``.

Clear saved Windows networking passwords.
