Useful DNS testing tool

VERY interesting... Works a treat under WINE, too, to save rebooting into Windows. Possibly one of Steve's best tools since Spinrite smile

I get different results from both smile

But then, both were run on different networks.

On Talk Talk, BT-6 is good. Will post for Sky and O2 tomorrow.

I ran best of 3 for both and Bytemark-VM seemed fastest for me.

Now I get BT 6 after running a few times.
