Look at the nameservers on the domain or look up the IP address of the site.

Search on google for the IP, see what comes up. It might show the name of the host.
Can you get the nameservers? If they're not on a reseller account that will make it easier. Run a whois on the domain to get the nameservers.

Go to - whois.domaintools.com
Type in the domain name, then click the server stats tab. That may help.
You can then whois the ip to get more information such as abuse emails etc.

Use reverse ip to find what is hosted on your IP...

http://www.ip-adress.com/reverse_ip/XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX

... change the X to your IP adress.

So, it is possible to know who hosting other sites ? Take a look at www.robtex.com (http://www.robtex.com). Lots of great info about any host.

If you're running Linux, just type:

whois <ipaddress>

Keep in mind though that the whois command gives you the "owner" of the IP space. If it's hosted by a reseller, you won't see the reseller identified.

Stronghold in aim though that the whois compel gives you the "person" of the IP expanse. If it's hosted by a reseller, you won't see the reseller identified.

Not sure there are any tools, one sure way is to ask, usually an email address somewhere in the website

Yes, this must be a great tool.

is hostxnow.com = eukhost.com ?

but domain.co.in = hostasp.net != theplanet.com

theplanet.com is our DC, where we had leased and managed servers, hostasp.net is us, providing shared hosting services :-)

Yes, I do have some servers with eUKhost. The domain hostxnow.com is hosted on a VPS with eUKhost.

I use dnswatch.info a lot. Good to check whether rDNS has been updated correctly or not, etc. Very useful.
