Hi,
how can someone do arbitrary DNS queries (like c library function
res_query) in ruby?

Nope, this is good for A RR only. But there are much
more Record Types, and I need to read the raw answer of new
record types (e.g. APL and RMX).

Sorry, I’m not a C coder: I should have looked at the manpage for res_query
before responding.

Use resolv.rb from the ruby 1.8 source.

Actually, it’s in ruby 1.6 as well.
