# Bulk DNS Lookup
# Generates a CSV of DNS lookups from a list of domains.

#
# IP address of the nameserver used for lookups:
ns_ip='1.1.1.1' # Is using Cloudflare's 1.1.1.1.
#
# Seconds to wait between lookups:
loop_wait='1' # Is set to 1 second.

for domain in $(cat $domain_list) # Start looping through domains
