DNS Checking and lookup

Hi, Is there anyway I can use PHP to find out all the information in a DNS Zonefile on a DNS server, in win2k, if you go to a dos prompt, and do the following nslookup <ENTER> server <DNS SERVER> ls -d <DOMAINNAME> you will get loads of information on that domain name, like SOA Records, A records, MX records, CNAME records, serial number, NS records, basically, the zone file. I need to be able to do this using PHP and would really appreciate some help, maybe a pointer in the direction... Please help, Christian Sacks please reply to me and the newsgroup. Thanks chris@spannersoftware.com
