Hello,

Is there any way to figure out where some domain is being hosted?

Regards,

nslookup domain.com

it will return an ip address, which you can do a whois on:

whois 1.1.1.1

or whois domain.com and maybe by the Name Servers you can figure it out.

Hi sci3ntist,

You can try a dig for the domains nameservers
eg.

[me@mypc Desktop]$ dig linuxquestions.org NS

; <<>> DiG 9.6.1-P1-RedHat-9.6.1-4.P1.fc11 <<>> linuxquestions.org NS
