Internet: Domain: Name: Server: Address: IP: Nslookup: How run
nslookup in Microsoft Windows?
NSLookup = Domain 'N'ame 'S'erver 'Lookup'

---
Steps: Overview:
1. -Open an MSDOS box, and type the command
nslookup <your URL>
e.g.
nslookup www.faqts.com
(Note:
do not put the 'http://' in front, or you will get
an error message)
2. -That will show you an output similar to the following:
e.g.
--- cut here: begin --------------------------------------------------
> nslookup www.faqts.com
Server: faqts.com
Address: 67.18.254.164
Aliases: www.faqts.com
--- cut here: end ----------------------------------------------------
So this shows you which
Server (Domain Name Server (=DNS)) has been contacted = faqts.com
the IP address of DNS for www.faqts.com = 67.18.254.164
and the alias for www.faqts.com

e.g.
--- cut here: begin --------------------------------------------------
> nslookup www.test.com
Server: dns.usa.net
Address: 184.124.15.55
Non-authoritative answer:
Name: test.com
Address: 165.153.97.200
Aliases: www.test.com
--- cut here: end ----------------------------------------------------
So this shows you which
Server (Domain Name Server (=DNS)) has been contacted = dns.usa.net
the IP address of that Domain Name Server for www.test.com =
184.124.15.55
Name test.com
IP Address for www.test.com = 165.153.97.200
Aliases for www.test.com = www.test.com
