Is there a #Linux cli tool that can watch a #DNS zone for change and alert me of the differences? So all #subdomains and the root #domain, all DNS entries (A, AAAA, NS, TXT, CAA, CNAME) are watched every time interval and an helpful output is generated when there is a difference to a state before?

You probably need full access to your zone (with zone transfer) or a provider with API access. Otherwise a script that checks all records, with something like dig.

@mboelen I have access, I can put a list together, but the hoster probably doesn't allow zone transfer. So the tool that I need should be able to take a list and iterate through the entries and compare them to previous state.

Then the only option I see is to craft that list manually and check items on a schedule by querying them. The challenge is how to keep the list up-to-date..
