Is there any option in nslookup (Red Hat) to retrieve all the aliases from an ip or name host?

This is Unix-Land. In quiet nights, you can hear the Windows machines
reboot.
 
The only way is to list the whole zone and pick through it. I believe even if you had permission, nslookup no longer supports the 'ls' option.

Using dig, it would be
dig @NAMESERVERIP -t axfr mydomain.com.

But remember, you must be allowed to transfer the zone to get this. Else it will fail.
