A couple of days ago, a disgruntled employee moved one of our web sites to another server, changed passwords and refuses to give us any access to the files & database. While my boss is working out the legal issues, how can I find out where the web site actually resides? And is there a way to find out where the database server might be? (I still have the PHP files with the original database user names and passwords, and I doubt they went to the trouble of changing those). Does anyone know of a tool or something better than "ping" to find out where things are? Is there a way to look up DNS records and go from there? Any ideas?
You can check the dns record from dnsstuff.com or from check dns. Also you can check the IP locate from ip2location.com. Just check the IP location for your A record of your domain. You will get the location for the server. Kailash
