How to check where a server physically is? - GoFuckYourself.com

Naughty · 02-13-2013, 07:32 AM

When i look up our server i see it is in Ontario Ca., however it is here in Amsterdam unless i am being lied to;-)

I need to see where another company is hosting and i get all mixed data. Is there a (good) way?

Cheers.

Traceroute is your friend.

Naughty · 02-13-2013, 07:47 AM

but then i get this
ip-12-34-456-89.ip.secureserver.net

No location.

It gives me the same results as i already had. I guess they are correct, but i got sidetracked due to lack of server knowledge.

The ip is in scotsdale (godaddy), but it points to dutch ns records. Any plausible reason for that?

dutch NS records don't matter. I can have name server all over the world (and I do) resolving my domain names. What matters is the IP address that your domain resolves to and where that IP is located.

Supz · 02-13-2013, 12:01 PM

whats the domain/ip?

Yanks_Todd · 02-13-2013, 12:02 PM

BTW how are you doing Naughty, its been a long time. Hope all is well.

That's based on the administrative address of the IP block, which is not necessarily the same as the physical location of the server. But it's usually about the best you can get.

FWIW, secureserver.net appears to be a vanity domain for GoDaddy and/or GoDaddy hosting. Both secureserver.net and godaddy.com share the same contact details.

I'm kind of tired and spaced out, so I was wondering for a few seconds why yessignals.com would have networking diagnostic tools on it.

ask your reseller

Stop talking stupid things. I just did what you told and I've hurt my head since cable ended in wall only few meters from my computer! Please, don't listen to this guy.

AndrewX · 02-14-2013, 07:27 AM

Yes I would use a visual traceroute. But this would be incorrect info if the website is behind a CDN and you use the website IP instead of server IP.
