in thread loop ending b4 I want it to

I am trying to achieve lookups for each IP in each nameserver, telling me success or no success.

We can disregard your first three bullet points, but the fourth yes I should only need to create one object. But since I have two nameservers, I need to lookup all these IPs twice, once in each nameserver. So do I still need one object? If so how do I dereference it? This code right below works, but no sure how to implement in the $res object code?

#for my $ns (@namesvr) { # for my $keys (sort keys %$ns) { # print "$keys => $ns->{$keys}\n"; # } # print "\n"; #} #exit;

#!/usr/bin/perl use strict; use warnings; use Carp; use Net::DNS; use Data::Dumper; ## AoH my @namesvr = ( { NAME => 'ns#.xxxx.com', IPLIST => [] } , +## Autovivification { NAME => 'wrnaxxxx.xx.xxxxx.com', IPLIST => [] } ) ; #print Dumper(\@namesvr);exit; my %IPinfo; ## HoH for my $IP (qw ( 10.220.84.30 10.220.84.51 10.220.84.52 10.220.84.54 10.220.84.55 10.220.84.56 10.220.84.57 10.220.84.58 )) { $IPinfo{$IP} = {DOMAININDEX => undef, TYPE => "CLIEN +T" } ; } our ( $res, $IP ) ; for my $ns (@namesvr) { for my $keys (sort keys %$ns) { $res = Net::DNS::Resolver->new ( nameservers => [$ns->{$keys}], recurse => 1, ## do recursive lookups retry => 1, debug => 0, ); } } for my $ip (keys %IPinfo) { for my $ids (0..$#namesvr) { my $ptr = nsqry($namesvr[$ids]->{NAME}, $ip) ; # nsqry has bee +n modified to return the info next unless $ptr ; # No change, if $ptr is empty $IPinfo{$ip}{DOMAININDEX} = $ids ; # Forward ref from IP to DO +MAIN $IPinfo{$ip}{PTR} = $ptr ; push @{$namesvr[$ids]->{IPLIST}}, $ip ; # Keep a list of IP's +that live in this domain } } sub nsqry { ( $res, $IP ) = @_ ; my $query = $res->query($IP, 'PTR') ; if ($query) { for my $rr ($query->answer) { next unless ($rr->type eq 'PTR') ; ## skip record if not e +q PTR ## print $rr->ptrdname ; return $rr->ptrdname ; } return undef ; } else { carp "query failed for $IP: ", $res->errorstring, "\n" ; return undef ; } }

    Looks like you are having trouble de-referencing the AOH @nameserver. Here is how I would do it:
    for my $nshash (@namesvr) { $nshash->{RESOLVER} = Net::DNS::Resolver->new ( nameservers => [$nshash->{NAME}], recurse => 1, ## do recursive lookups retry => 1, debug => 0, ); }
    This produces and saves a RESOLVER object entry for each name server. You can now pass this into nsquery thus:
    my $ptr = nsqry($namesvr[$ids]->{RESOLVER}, $ip) ;
    By the way, you should really have a my in front of ($res, $IP) inside the sub nsqry. Without that, you will be using globals, which may have un-intended side-effects, and is bad practice anyway.
