SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

13       This utility is a command-line wrapper around the val_res_query()
14       function.  It invokes the val_res_query() function with the given
15       command-line arguments and displays the returned data as a DNS-style
16       response.  It also displays the validation status value for the records
17       returned for the query.
18
19       The exit status for this program is 1 if the answer received is
20       trusted, 2 if the answer received is validated, and -1 for an error.
21       The program returns 0 if the result was neither trusted nor validated.
22       The trusted and validated status values are obtained using the
23       val_istrusted() and val_isvalidated() functions from libval(3).
