=head1 NAME

check_soa - Check a domain's nameservers

=head1 SYNOPSIS

B<check_soa> I<domain>

=head1 DESCRIPTION

B<check_soa> queries each of a domain's nameservers for the Start
of Authority (SOA) record and prints the serial number.  Errors
are printed for nameservers that couldn't be reached or didn't
answer authoritatively.

=head1 AUTHOR

The original Bourne Shell and C versions were printed in
I<DNS and BIND> by Paul Albitz & Cricket Liu.

This Perl version was written by Michael Fuhr <mike@fuhr.org>.
