    Just check the nameservers. Go to www.whois.sc and you'll get all the info you need.

    does this work with reseller accounts where they used those dns service that registered a different nameserv

    I had a host that I found out the actual host after his service fell apart. The actual host was actually a lot cheaper

    if it's a dedicated box either do a reverse dns on the ip or do whios on the ip. A whois would tell you who owns the ip (most of the time the hosting company). If they actualy bought the ip doing a reverse dns will tell you who is routing it. That is definitly their hosting company.
