How to find hosting company via IP?
Does anyone know how to find a company's hosting company?
This guy is using my custom made files illegally on his website and I would like to contact his host but I don't know how to go about finding his host.
I know his IP and by running a hostname to IP search it appears that the server is at GNAX.
Anyone have any suggestions? Maybe I'll just contact GNAX.
Thanks

It can give a bit of info. For example
rghf@liquidfusion:~$ host eplanetdesign.com
eplanetdesign.com has address 64.5.58.18
rghf@liquidfusion:~$ telnet 64.5.58.18 25
Trying 64.5.58.18...
Connected to 64.5.58.18.
Escape character is '^]'.

So I might guess you are hosted with gzo.com. Though as that is a private nameserver domain not to helpful but a quick google shows that is Dathorn

Have you tried doing a lookup on the domain and seeing what the nameservers are and going from there?
