Many new users ask how to find a friend's domain name if the IP address is known, or how to find an IP address if the domain name is known. This is now.
$ nslookup Default Server: whatever.com Address: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx > set q=ptr > 204.209.156.2 2.156.209.204.in-addr.arpa name = bambam.vu.com 2.156.209.204.in-addr.arpa name = www.vu.com > ^D $
man nslookup. Also, try whois IPaddress and whois domain.name where IPaddress and domain.name are real values.
