Dear all.
I try to get a list of all sub-domains in the .dk domain using the
command "ls .dk", but
I always get the following error:
Can't list domain .dk: Unspecified error

I tried with every one of the nameservers for the domain, and I get the
same error every time.
Is there a way to circumvent this problem

regards

Ask one of the five name servers authoritative for dk to allow you to pull
zone transfers. Unless you can provide a very good reason for your
request, don't be surprised if you're turned down.

Presumably the administrators of the dk zone prevent random users from
taking copies of the zone, probably to counter cybersquatting and
other unsavoury practices.
