What organization is responsible for managing IP addresses, domain names, and root server systems?

IP addressing and root server systems are the responsibility of ICANN, the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers. Domain name control is delegated by ICANN to national hostmasters. Each country has its own hostmaster service, and registration of domains is usually delegated to independant registrar companies and hosting companies on authority of the national registrar.

Oh yes, the website admin can usually find out the IP address and the domain from which the access was done.  However, it is difficult to pin-point exactly who did it unless the user has a static IP address (fixed IP address).  Usually ISPs provide you with a dynamic IP.  So its difficlut to find out who did it in your case.

The domain name system (DNS) is the way that Internet domain names are located and translated into IP (Internet Protocol) addresses. A domain name is a meaningful and easy-to-remember "handle" for an Internet address. Because maintaining a central list of domain name/IP address correspondences would be impractical, the lists of domain names and IP addresses are distributed throughout the Internet in a hierarchy of authority.\n\nDNS Server should installed on your server for configuration. There are many books available in the market to learn how to configure and work with DNS.

Ping can be used to see if another server is running or to measure the distance to another servers. It is short for Packet Internet Groper. A utility that forwards data packets to check the quality of a link or verify the connection of a machine to the Internet.\n\nThe domain name system (DNS) is the way that Internet domain names are located and translated into IP (Internet Protocol) addresses.

This can be configured either through the ODBC Administrator or in a DSN file. On Windows, the information is called a system or user DSN and is stored in the Registry. Data source information can also be stored in text configuration files, as is the case on UNIX.

Once you do a reverse lookup to determine a host name, you can do a whois to determine who owns that name. This information can be useful when tracking down Spam originators and other purveyors of computer nastiness.

1) Short for Domain Name System (or Service or Server), an Internet service that translates domain names into IP addresses. Because domain names are alphabetic, they're easier to remember. The Internet however, is really based on IP addresses. Every time you use a domain name, therefore, a DNS service must translate the name into the corresponding IP address. For example, the domain name www.example.com might translate to 198.105.232.4. \nThe DNS system is, in fact, its own network. If one DNS server doesn't know how to translate a particular domain name, it asks another one, and so on, until the correct IP address is returned.

There is a web hosting server, which has got different virual folders setup as websites...more like a schema...those folders are locked with a referenced IP address. So when you type in the website address...DNS reosloves the name to the IP address...and gives you the website to  your browser!\n\nHelps??

You could also do a service scan of the IP address to see what services are being ran on that IP address, or what domain name may be associated to that IP address.\n\nYou can do a lookup of the information about an IP address at http://www.domainwhitepages.com

root is the main administrator account on linux and unix computers.  Or in simple words the person who runs that server.

The IANA (Internet Assigned Numbers Authority) and the internet architesture board (i think) are Owned (in the first case) and controlled (in the latter) By The US Department of Commerce. A recent international conference on the INternet tried to wrestle some of this power away into the hands of a UN-Led body - whether this will happen is yet to be seen. Also it is worth noting that the US Govern,ment effectively invented the internet, and it is only because of its structural nature that they lost much of that control. \n\nBy the way - the IANA Issues all the I.p. addresses and .com/.co.uk/.org type postfixes. \n\nHope this helps.

IP address is assigned to a machine usually upon sign in and will have that address only for the duration of a session or a specific amount of time. \n\nIP addresses contain 32-bits and are expressed as a series of four decimal numbers (also known as a dot address) such as 66.94.230.32 (an IP address for Yahoo!).\n\nYou can choose to block individual IP addresses or block a range of IP addresses depending on which action you wish to take.\n\nYou can use reverse DNS lookup to look up information about a particular IP address including the country of origin and the organization that owns the IP address. Some IP address registries include additional information but this varies by registrar.

You need the functionality of the 'whois' command.  If you have access to a Unix system, look at the whois manpage and source code. Alternatively, read the  RFC 3912: WHOIS Protocol Specification.\n\nIf a whois query doesn't returns success, it means that the domain is available. You can also use search engines to find sites running whois, and even source code, if you want to create a web module.\n\nFinally, if you are just interested in Local domains, (not internet), read the DNS RFC. You would need to send a DNS query for the domain, and if its available, you will get a NXDOMAIN response.

get one of their emails - look at the header information, find the source IP address and type that into an IP "who is" search - thsi is very brief but have a search on the Internet there are plenty of site to give help

The international internet council, or whatever it's calling itself nowadays, must keep a master listing of all domain names, be they .com, .net, .whatever.  These are maintaned on special computers across the internet called nameservers and their name describes their function.\nTo find out if a name is being used, go to any domain name sales site (godaddy.com for instance) and search for a name.

whois.sc is a website that compiles a wide variety of different information regarding domains. The purpose is to provide everyone with a central location of all information regarding domains. This includes IP addresses, DNS servers, domain registrants, and more. They are not responsible for distributing IP addresses, that is a function of ICANN.\n\n"Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN)\nBased on a 1998 agreement with the Commerce Department, ICANN oversees the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) and controls how the Net's 4.29 billion IP addresses are used."\n\nPlease view my source for a more detailed look (map) at how IP addresses are assigned.

ping -a <ip address>\n\nTo query a specific DNS server use NSlookup from command line then do a ls for PTR records.  Or use an online IP whois tool.
