TCP/IP DNS Registry Database Lookup Utility (whois/nicname)
(Page 2 of 3)
Sample whois Output
Table 295
shows the sample output of the whois command on a FreeBSD UNIX
machine (I have stripped out some of the preliminary general information
and legal disclaimers to keep the table down to size).

In this case, the registrar
of the domain “pcguide.com” is pairNIC, the DNS registry
division of pair Networks, the company I have used for Web hosting
for many years (since 1997, as you can see). This output is public information,
and lets anyone who has an interest in pcguide.com, for whatever reason,
determine that I own the domain and learn how to contact me. (That is
obviously not my real phone number, of course.) It also tells them that
pair Networks runs the name servers that contain domain information
for my domain.
