You can use the nslookup command to determine the IP address
associated with an Internet site name. You specify the common
name, and the nslookup command looks up the name on your DNS
server (usually located with your ISP). If that name is not an entry
in your ISP's DNS table, the request is then referred to another
higher-level server, and so on, until the entry is found. The server
then returns the associated IP address.
On Windows-based computers, you can execute the nslookup
command from the Start menu. Click the Start -> Run. In the Open
text box, type the following:
Click the OK button. A Command Prompt window displays with a
bracket prompt (>). At the prompt, type the name of the Internet
address you are interested in, such as www.absnews.com.
