I think, your script is missing Thread::join:

> domains = ['www.bim.com','www.bum.com','www.bam.com']
> ..
> def check (host,domain,timeout)
>   puts "checking... #{host} -> #{domain}"
>   timeout(timeout) do
>    begin
>     `/usr/bin/nslookup #{domain} #{host}`
>    rescue Timeout::Error
>    end
>   end
> end
>
> iplist.each { |host|
>  threads << Thread.new(host) { |host|
>   domains.each do |domain|
>    check(host,domain,timeout)
>   end
>  }}
>

threads.each {|th|
  th.join
}

(Not tested.)
